The weekend was a busy one, but I was able to get in the minimum amount of running to get to the week's goal. Luckily I had the Father's Day card to play on Sunday, which allowed me to get out a little later than usual for the morning run and then get out again in the early evening for a nice fartlek run. Waking up early on Sunday to try and fit in a run before the kids woke was not going to be option as the graduation party that we hosted on Saturday stretched into the wee hours of the night.

I've never been a big fan of fartleks as it's pretty hard to quantify the run, but without the Garmin and no really great marked path around my house, that's about all I could do. The 305 has been ordered and should arrive tomorrow (Thanks Mom-in-Law!!!!!), so very soon I'll have to find something new to whine about. Based on past history, that shouldn't be a problem.

You need to post this blog over on the Taper board. I can't keep making a separate trip here everyday.
