Rain, winds and fog have all been (negative) factors this week. My motivation completely stalled and I dragged my feet on my running, literally and figuratively. I hope i can work my way out of the rut soon. It will make things so much easier. Sunday - rest I have really started to appreciate ...

weekly recap: 1/31 – 2/6
weekly review: 6.14 – 6.20
I can't believe I only blogged one time last week! Sheesh! I guess summer vacation is having that kind of effect on me! Now, that doesn't mean I haven't been working my rear off!
