Taking a toll

So over the last few days I've really started to feel the cumulative effects of having a newborn in the house. I'm tired. My body is achy. My legs don't have the speed in them they used to. My usually ritual like training schedule has become haphazard and unpredictable.

Would I change any bit of it? Not for a second. My little girl is too amazing!

I'm just having to accept the realization that I'm not going to be able to perform at the level I had planned. And that is all right. Yup, I can convince myself that it's ok. Right?

Thursday:  5.09 miles. 8:04 minutes/mile pace.
Friday:  3.63 miles. 7:43 minutes/mile pace. (failed 6-4 pace run).
Saturday:  rest very sore legs
Sunday:  7.25 miles. 8:25 minutes/mile pace. Lake Z. loop with Blake on his bike.
