Lakeland Hills. May have been 9-10+ miles. Met up with the ladies group in Lakeland Hills this time. We met at Starbucks at 8 a.m. and went from there. We ran R on the road where the Rock Pizza is and went down a new area I have never been. We made a loop back there and then up and down a hill then past the Shopping plazza and straight across. Turned a left where the park is and went on some other streets. From there I am not sure where we went but it was nice. There were about 7 of us running. 2 dogs were running as well with our group. We ran about 5 miles and then I kept running when everyone else stopped. They said we are at 5+ miles when my gps said 4+ miles. i am have forgot to push the button when we stopped to tie a shoe. I went according to my garmin though and figured even if my watch was off I would run some extra if it was. I would rather run more than not enough. I ran on the Lake Tapps Rd from the Rock Pizza to the Texaco and back. On the way back I ran on some neighborhood streets. Then I ran L at the rock pizza and up the same Rd we went on in the beginning but just about .5 miles then turned around. Then I was back at the shopping plaza. No major problems, but my L upper hip bothers me some and my calus on my L foot. It was great to have partially sunny weather!
