Being both Mom and Dad is KILLING my long runs.  My teenagers have a midnight curfew on weekends.  On Friday night they were out until midnight...why would they come home any earlier?  I had to get up at 4:15 to run before a meeting I had at 8:30.  I distinctly remember at mile 5 wanting to go to sleep on the grass and not even caring if I ever woke up or who saw me sleeping there.  I cut my 13 mile run down to 9, I am not sure what I am going to do next weekend!  Do you think if I ask nicely they will come in at 9:30 so I can go to bed?

splits: 9:07, 9:02, 8:54, 9:05, 8:57, 9:59, 9:43, 9:08, 8:58

Use the line "If you love me, you will come home at 9:30 so I can run in the morning."
