Nice 12-miler, Nat! You've certainly returned to form in the last few months, haven't you? Like anyone expected that a little one could possibly slow you down...
Les, your Saturday (very) long run sounded good, even though you started in the dark. I just noticed last week how dark it is in the morning, and at 5am, well, is your group returning to a later start time this weekend?
As I reported the other day, I've been keeping up with only yoga and weights while trying to get the house in shape for the appraiser on Wednesday. It's not as though we live in a pig sty, but I've let the cleaning go a bit during the summer (can I use lack of a/c as a partial excuse?) so everything looks a little yucky. Especially those rooms which we don't use on a regular basis (like the guest room, which I refer to as the "dumping room").
ps- There was a color run near here a few weeks ago and a photo was in the paper of a woman finishing, covered in purple, yellow, and pink cornstarch. Alas, it probably washed off her shoes where Cheryl's will look colorful all of the time!

We just moved and joined a group fitness class nearby. I am really enjoying it. We do a workout then some weight training. I am learning quite a bit about how to correctly lift weights, etc. I am planning on a run tomorrow or Friday. I'm currently only doing about 5k but am planning to sign up for the annual 10k Turkey Trot for Thanksgiving so I need to up my mileage at some point. 
It sounds like you got in a good workout after perking up. 
Although I would say "two steps forward and one step back" in your case. It may progress slowly, but it will progress, I am certain. Keep checking back here for some encouragement-- we have lots of it for you!
