Wow, I actually ran with my SHADOW today! Haven't seen that around for a while! I like to try to watch my form a bit when I see my shadow. But the best thing about having my shadow there was that the sun was there to provide it for me! YEAH!!!! Today's temps were beautiful! I ran in a SHORT SLEEVED SHIRT! I wish I would have had shorts on too, but I wasn't quite brave enough for that. Next time though!
I was having a hard time being motivated about running alone today so Tom invited me to come in and run with him at lunch. We figured out a way to make it work out for both of us. We started out together for 2 miles while he warmed up for his tempo run. At 2 miles he continued out at his pace while I went at mine. He went past me one way and then the other a few times and then at the end we ran together for his cool down. It worked pretty good. I had to wait for just a couple minutes at the end for him. So even though I really ran most of this run alone, it didn't feel like running alone. I think I will run a few less miles the next few days because Tom and I are planning on a little longer run on Saturday on the Provo River Trail. The following weekend will be the Run for the Red 5K at that location. I have never ran there so we thought it would be a fun diversion for this weekend as well. Happy sunshine for those of you who are able to see it today! And for those who don't have it yet, it will come and you will love it! |
