Logo Idea:  I am just putting something out there.  I purposely left out colors and fancy fonts.  I am hoping someone more creative and artsy than me can make something out of this.  I was thinking about the circle with the arrows pointing in the direction of the slogan.  Anything or nothing could go in the middle.  My apologies to Sasha, but I could not think of anything else for the center part right now.  Feel free to laugh, cry, clap, or boo when you see this.  I will not be offended.  Anything anyone wants to add to, remove, or modify is ok with me.  This is just a rough "sketch" of an idea.

I had planned all day to run in the evening when the temperatures were a little cooler.  But once it was time to go, I had lost all desire.  I almost skipped but remembered  excuse #2 on Sasha's Top Ten Excuse List For Missing A Run.  So I ran slower.  I figured I would run slower and shorter than planned.  But after 3 miles I felt ok and decided to go a little more.  Funny how running slower can make it better in the end after all.

And honey, I know you will read this later.  You mentioned it would be ok to take a break tonight since I did not feel like running.  But sometimes I need a little push to get out the door.  So every once in awhile remind me of that.  Unless I really need a break, then I will let you know.  love you.
