Easy run.

6:56 am, 66-70° F, 68% humidity, winds calm, mostly cloudy.

This was a slow run. I'm really sluggish, particularly at the start of my runs, lately.

I didn't get sprinklers until the end of the 7th mile, but they were good ones.

When I was at about 7.86 miles, I stopped at home and my daughter came out and we ran around the block together, sort of. We started out together and then she went ahead of me and then I caught up, and then she got behind me, then caught up, but then she decided to walk so I kept going and finished ahead of her, but she poured it on and ran at the very end. When we were done, I stretched, and then we went in the back yard and sat in the wading pull that she had set up yesterday. It was quite cold when I first got in, but then it was okay once I was in. I sat there for a few minutes.

bag those sprinklers! A pool is where it's at! Glad you had a fun day and a little run with your daughter. I think it's funny how kids have a hard time going an even pace, but surge and rest.

Nice miles and smiles.

Nothing like a cold bath at the end of a run.

Nice Wednesday miles.

Wading pool sounds kinda nice.

Good distance.

Glad you go to run with your daughter, even if only around the block.

sprinklers and pools- what a great run. I find my times are slower in the summer- I wonder if it's the heat?
