When I got home last night i had to watch my daughter practice baseball. She did well as always, she is a pretty natural athlete and the nice thing about this year in baseball is that they are teaching her the techical parts of the game. Running bases, positioning, quick releases, everything. They had her at short stop last night and she ate up every ball that came to her. Well after that was over I had to make dinner and do kids homework which was quite painful with a tired kid. I didn't get my run in.

Up at 4 today and over to the field to get in an early morning speedwork session. It was painless. I was in a really cool zone. I did a mile warm and then started doing 20 second sprints with almost total recovery in between. I don't know how many I was doing because I was lost in my thoughts. My life is due to get really complicated soon and I don't know where to turn. I was hoping to do a 50 miler in the fall but I don't believe I will have the time to train. Its just not fair to the people around me. I think that I will have to scale everything back and build on the little things.
