5.32 miles - 7:31 avg.
After work, I changed into my running gear and headed out the door. I decided to take a shorter yet more uphill route..... my legs are tired. About a mile into this run, I saw a guy take a left onto the road that I was coming up on. I knew right away that it was the same person that my wife and I always see running on that side of town. He's probably in his mid twenties and he has a real springy gait..... almost like a gazelle. It's actually a pretty fluid looking stride. Anyways, I immediately picked up the pace like I always do when I have a rabbit in front of me and unbeknownst to him, shadowed him for about 400yds. When he finally sensed me there, he snapped his head around quick and did a little scaredy jig :) I can't say I blame him. I have had people come up quick on me and since I'm almost always solo, it can be quite unerving. I was going to strike up some conversation, but I sensed it would be me doing most of the talking :) Maybe next time. |
