I am shamed....a little at least

So Cassie and I argue every once in a while about the footprint my running has on her life. I tend to feel like my watching the kids every Friday night pays for my Saturday morning run. Then again, I also sometimes stay late after work for a running workout. Perhaps she has a point. :-) At any rate, I follow this guy's blog . In the article, he talks about his philosophy that runs must be completed before 7:15AM on weekdays and 9AM on weekend days to ensure he still has family time, doesn't impune too much on the spouse, etc. We're a lot alike in that we both have small children, a full time job, and both are runners.

Here's the critical difference: he has the philosophy while training for the Western States 100! I'm training for a race that's a quarter of that. I am shamed. I better brake out my head lamp and get ready for some early runs. :-)
