Boise, ID 6:00 am

Pace: 8:41

Weather was nice this morning. Overcast in the low 60s. I expected to get rained on, but it didn't start until after I got back.

I took a slightly different route. Cloverdale over the freeway to Overland (I forgot how narrow the shoulder of that overpass is) to Maple Grove to Ustick and home. I kind of just plugged along at a comfortable pace most of the morning until the last mile and a half when I saw someone running ahead of my and decided to try to pass him. I was feeling pretty good about myself until I passed the guy and realized that the dude was at least 80 years old. So I flipped him the bird and yelled "get the lead out grampa!" Actually, I smiled, waved and said good morning, but I think he knew what I meant.

Haha! I thought that was you I saw going the opposite direction on Overland. Having only your profile photo to go on though, I decided not to risk potential embarassment. LOL.
