20 miles, AP 8:14

SO glad to have company today and SO glad to have Friday's off. The trade-off is that by the time I get home on Wednesday night I am almost in tears! Hoping my body gets used to the longer days. The crappy thing is that it takes me 30 minutes to drive to work and 30 minutes to drive home. Then I work a 10 hour shift, which actually by the time I get all my charting done ends up being closer to 11.5. So I leave my house at 6:30 a.m. and then get home around 7 p.m. Something has got to give. I need to see one or two less patients in order to catch up on charting during the day, or not work so far away from home, or go back to a normal work week, because I hate not getting home until dinner time. I miss my kiddos too much. Granted, most of them don't get home until about that time (secondary to sports, cheer, etc) but still. Maybe I need to go back to my old schedule. Or maybe I should just go to working 30 hours a week (but then I don't get all the benefits). Ugh. I have no idea. Blah! But I digress, back to the run -

So, it went a little something like this:

Ran to Shelbey's house (3.5 miles)

Then Shelbey and I ran on the trail up to Brigham, then the big hill, then to my house for more fuel. Then back to her house where we picked up her hubby to run one mile (13 miles)

Ran back home, and a jig a jig jig (3.5 miles)

It's super nice to have the long run done on Friday. I like it! And as always, I love running with Shelbey! She's a freaking rock star! :-)

nice long run! Looks like it's warming up down there in Dixie. Should be some great running weather going on.

Lots to think about with work. I was kicking around the idea of 4 10s for a while, but I decided I didn't want to ruin 4 days of my week to have one awesome day. I always go in late on Fridays anyways, so I do my long runs of Fridays. Like you said, it's nice to have it done of Friday.
