Today was one of those days when "just get out the door" turns into a longer run than you had originally planned. 

I ran 1300 W to 7000 South, and then down to the river trail.  About three miles in, my blood sugar was already dropping, so I took a gu.  This route is 7.5 miles.  About the time I was about to leave the river trail, I ran into some of the East kids and Bill doing their run.  I can never resist having running partners, so I ran a 2 mile loop with them before I left the trail.  By the end of the run, I was really hungry.  But, it was nice getting a little longer run, and having some running company on a beautiful morning.
