Dark, early, cool, but not cold ... so, karma might come back to me after this morning. I am just past the turn-around (~35 min) and this guy comes up from an alternate path and passes me, well, he really wasn't that fast, and he had a really awkward gait, and I thought, "no way is *that* guy going to get away from me". So, I was really running pretty easy, so I just picked it up so I kept right on him. It was sort of mean of me, because I deliberately did not pass him (because I wasn't really running that fast, I was just running faster than 'easy' pace) - but just kept the pressure on, after about a mile he was making all kinds of grunting noises ... but he kept trying to pick it up ... I guess he was as competitive as me ;-). We "ran together" for about 3 miles, and then he ran one direction and I ran the other when we came to a fork in the road. It was sort of mean of me, but it was exhilarating, and it was his "fault" for thinking that I could be easily passed ;-). Another day of sitting on my butt all day in the meeting ... we vote alot, so at least I get to raise my hands every once-in-a-while ;-). Happy weekend bloggers!
