My home. 8 a.m. I decided to get up and run today even though Labor Day. I felt like I needed to burn off some calories. I didn't bother checking with any of the ladies; thought they would all be tired from the race and different activities as well. It was already starting to get hot today. I passed Angela and Marianne on my way onto Lemon Tree. How funny! We stopped and talked for just a few sec. I kept on going the usual route but evidentaly didn't start my GPS up again after talking. So I think I should acutually add in an extra 1/2 mile to my run. I just went by what my watch said and went a little bit further. I didn't go to the big bend. I ran past the trash cans a bit further out. Then instead of turning onto Rd that connects to Lemon tree I went straight to see where it went. It just went back to the main Rd, 164. So I turned around and went to the Rd I was used to that connected to Lemon tree. Then I ran home; very hot! My legs were in pain, so so sore from the lake I think or the 10 mile run on Sat.? Tough run but I was going a decent pace as well.

Lakeland Hills.5:30 a.m. Decided to join the ladies in Lakeland instead of my usual running buddies. It was just Janet, Niki, and I today. We ran the usual route in Lakeland hills but took the downhill part which was shorter so it was just about 4 miles or so. I felt pretty good, I was worried about the hills and little sleep I got but I did them just fine! Yeah! My right leg felt a little funny in beginning. I think I am really due for new running shoes. No major pains just small ones.

Mishel's home. 5:30 a.m. Walked across the street to join a run with Mishel, Angela, and Cheri. It was a surprise to see Cheri there because we usually go to her house for a run. Also I wasn't expecting to see Angela because she has been running with the new girl lately who is more her speed. I thought we scared her. ha ha funny. Great run with all 4 of us. We did our usual route again. Toward the last 2 miles Mishel and I pulled a bit more in the front ot the group. It was actually decently warm this morning so a tank and short shorts was perfect. I feel sore from football and my ankles don't feel the same.
