Ran with Molly. We did 4.2 miles in 43:15. She had to walk a half mile or so. She definately has a faster pace but not much stamina at this point. Tonight was still a good run for her and a relaxing run for me.

Ran the beach bridges with Mark P and a guy named Greg we met on the way. Ran at 6:05 am and it was a gorgeous morning. Awesome moon, Mark saw a shooting star, and we had a nice breeze for the Gulf side of the run. The three bridge ascents took their toll on me later in the run but I still finished with a 8:30 average pace. Not a stellar finish but hey, this is my first hill work of any kind in over a year. I'll take it!

Time: 6:05 am   Total Time: ??  Temp: 75 degrees
