Sometimes You Just Have To

I didn't run yesterday because Ruby was sick.  Excuses, excuses.  I didn't want to go today, either, but Mattie pointed out that she hadn't been running since last Thursday and really needed to get out.  I don't feel safe letting her go by herself, so I went.  And I'm glad I did.  2.4 miles in 29 minutes.  My legs felt like they weighed a ton and my right knee was hurting a bit, but we made another slight improvement in our time, nonetheless.  My mood was better after the run, too.  Funny how that works.
