My legs felt really great today, I am sure it is from all the time I took off being sick. I promised Andy that I would only do 15 miles today (I had thought about doing 22) At the 7.5 mile mark I felt so good I thought Ill just go .5 more and do 16 at the 8 mile mark I thought Ill just do one more and make it 18 then I thought better and turned around at 8.25. The miles just seemed to fly by and they all felt very easy. I think part of it was a slight change in form. When I ran with Smooth, Maynard and Kimmy two weeks ago we saw the BYU cross country team. Their form was so effort less. Smooth mention than when I ran you couldn't see the bottom of my shoe like you could with them. I was doing more of an old lady shuffle then at true stride. During this run I pretended then I had funny pictures on the bottoms of my shoes that I wanted to show everyone. I really concentrated on trying to get a true stride. It was really easy with my right leg but my left leg just wanted to flop along. I think I am going to work on this for the next little while. So if I run with any of you in the near future please check out my form and feel free to comment. (Remember you can only check out my form not me, although I know I am one hot grandma!) Splits: 9:08, 8:46, 8:35, 8:51, 8:49, 8:32, 8:39, 8:40, 8:37, 8:35, 8:42, 8:59, 8:44, 8:47, 8:50, 12:30 (walked big hill mile home)
