Now that I'm working a lot more than I ever have before (and want to be), I'm finding it hard to get runs in between work and other things. Especially now that it is getting dark earlier every day. I'm dreading turning the clocks back. This weekend I went backpacking in VT and missed my long run on Sunday, which bothered me as I thought I'd be too tired and not have time to get it in today. However, I got it in and felt quite good. For previous marathons I followed my training schedule every day, but I think I'm going to give myself some more flexibility and see how it goes.
Much appreciation for Geoff who found time to train for the Hartford Marathon and just had a baby in January! Sounds like mommy Em is already back to running too! (Is Sierra going to be a runner or a lacrosse player?)

If you really want something in life, you'll find the time to have it--naturally. The single mom of three who works 60 hours per week and gets to train for the Olympics (100+ miles/week) only after she has put her kids to bed is the epitome of this.
My view is that if you don't have time for something, whatever that something may be is just not that important to you.
We all have the same 24 hours per day in which to make our lives the way we want them to be...
Cheers!
Geoff had a baby? That's got to be a medical miracle! Yes, I've been back to running for sometime now. I think I might have mentioned that I did my first post-baby triathlon on Oct. 4 (maybe I didn't mention this). OF COURSE Sierra will be a runner (though Jason actually says she's going to play hockey -- we'll see how likely that is if we stay in Virginia!).
nice work in the tri. 33 of 288 isn't too shabby.
