Last night I got stuck in freeway closure traffic! Let me tell you-that SUCKS ASS when you've worked all day and just want to get home! I was actually 10 minutes from the "closure time" thanks Cal Trans for shutting down the freeway 10 minutes early! It cost me 30 precious minutes which are a lot to me!
This morning I did get a short, tired, slow run in with Velcro on just 6 hours sleep! Just not enough sleep for me! But I ran-it was slow and sluggish but I guess a run is a run! But should I be trying to get more sleep/no runs (which mentally would fry me) or are my crappy sluggish runs on a short amount of sleep benefitting me? I am continiung and building my mileage-which is good! But not sleeping enough isn't good either!
Well, tonight I will avoid the freeway closure and will hopefully get 7 hours of sleep! I'd pay to get 7 hours of sleep tonight!! A nap at lunch is in my future!

Great job getting your runs in, but be sure to get your sleep as well!
2 weeks to SFM! Woo Hoo!
Yup, a run is a run. ;)
I have NO IDEA how you do the whole LA Traffic thing...
A run is a run! So....whatdaya think about RBR's challenge to do Vineman next August. I'm seriously considering it. I'd have to start swimming though.
Are you talking about the 405 and the fire near the Getty? Yeah, that traffic was gnarly...spread to local surface streets in West LA too. Don't envy you (or the other thousands stuck in it).
Hope you get that much needed rest soon!
I seriously don't know how you do it. I need at least 8 hours of sleep when I'm running. Lately I even have nights I try to get in 9.
Great job getting your run in!! You are my hero!
