My watch said 2:30:49, 1:17:39/1:13:10 -- but I don't think the 1:17:39 was right. There was a snake on the trail, and I had to stop running, see what kind, and then give adequate birth to get around. Since it was not a rattlesnake, I did not have to go too far off the trail to get around, but sometimes it is good to get out of their way even if they don't have rattlesnake characteristics. Anyway, this probably took a couple of mins, and I might not have turn off my watch. Regardless ... I was running slow, but it did not feel "that" slow on the first lap. It was sort of a tough run though, the first lap I felt drained, a little unmotivated, and like I did not have enough blood sugar or something. But, as soon as I started on the second lap I got into my "running zone" and just powered through. It is 84F and sunny! Dean said yesterday, "it is a beautiful summer day, too bad it is in March". he he. Happy Sunday bloggers. Thank you all so much for your support. Even when I am not "running" during whatever treatment course is taken - I will still try to stay a part of the blog, because I consider you all to be my friends ;-) |
