I feel like a cheat! These times are not accurate!  Something got screwed up on mile 7 and the distance kept going but the time stopped for about 1 minute or two.  So actual time and ap are not as good as this refelcts!  So, ap was maybe 9:30's??  Still I am satisfied with the 7 before work. HTC is 3 weeks away so for the next two weeks I need to do two-a-days at least once a week.  And then do an easy week the week before.

On a side note, we saw a dead cat up close and personal. So gross!  It's eyes were popping out and all bloody.  Sad. :-(

Now, just have to clean the house top to bottom tonight to get ready for the parentals.

Way to go lady! That is sooo sad about the cat. I probably would have cried. Unless it was a wild cat and not someone's pet? One can always hope.
