I ran with my new neighbor today and Will.  She is getting back into running after having ankle surgery in April.  It's not like running with you, Sarah.  But, it helps me feel more at home here in this new unfamilar place.  The run was very easy today.  There are a lot more hills here in Iowa.  I was a bit worn out from the Monday through Thursday runs.  I think I might even have run 5 a couple of the days or maybe it was just 4 miles.  I don't know my exact mileages.  There are two great bike trails and one is marked.  Our appartment is surrounded by lots of lawns and sport fields with wide sidewalks, so I have run around on those this week, too.  Off of the marked bike trail is a cross county course.  I've noticed it is marked by miles and kilometers.  I saw a 1K, a 7K, and a 2 mile sign.  I plan on exploring the course tomorrow without Will.  (The course is grass--you guys probably already knew that.)  Well, it's exciting to start a running blog.  Thanks for putting this together Sasha.  It definately beats paper!

Well, I ran a mile out to the cross country course.  I ran the outside of the course, but I am not sure how far I ran.  I started at the 2 mile sign.  Then I proceeded to pass a 7K, a 1K, a 4 mile, a 3K, a 3 mile, and a 5K/9K sign.  And I even saw a 6 mile sign.  I think I ran about a 2 mile loop around the course--Well, I was just surfing the internet, trying to find more information on the Ashton Cross Country Course and it said that the perimeter was 2,000 meter.  So I guess I didn't run that far--just over a mile.  So I only ran 4 miles instead of the 5 I thought I did.  Shoot.  I felt like I was working really hard and keeping a good pace.  It took me just over an hour to run to the course, run around the course, run a half mile further out on the bike trail (which is very close to the CC course), and then run the mile and a half home.  Next time I am not taking my watch.  I felt like it was a good long run, but with my watch I feel very, very slow.  Oh, well--on to putting up some pictures on my electronic photo album.
