8.65 miles - 7:33 avg.
After reading on this blog site, that even Jake Krong runs at an 8 min. pace from time to time, I thought to myself.... hey, I can run an 8 min. pace. Even better..... I can run slower than an 8 min. pace! Everything was going according to plan, up until about mile 7 when I couldn't help but pick it up a bit near the end of the run. It didn't help that I saw a runner about 400 yards ahead of me moving at a good clip down River St. There was my carrot! It turns out that she was moving at a very good pace, because I didn't catch her until I was nearing the end of my run about a mile later. I passed her going over a little knoll in the road, and just as I was passing, a police cruiser crested the other side of the blind knoll. I glanced over just as the cop was waving his arms inside his car. My reaction was WTF???? and I proceeded to mimick him and wave my arms back with a similiar nasty look. I thought that I was going to get spoken to, but nothing materialized from the encounter..... good thing for me, because I was definitely rubbed the wrong way! Dirty Copper! Ha ha!
