Total Distance

4.00

A tad shorter today but I needed it and it felt really good. Relish those slow runs, and to top it off I found a new running partner who is training for TOU and she runs right about the same pace as me. That's so swell! I ran to the fitness center and did two laps then ran home.

Miles 15:00, 13:30, 12:30, 12:30 the only bad part is that I became a mass murderer, there were so many colonies of ants right in the middle of the path, I couldn't avoid them all so a few met an early demise.

Hey- I murdered a TON yesterday with the hose at my sons' request. It must be a bad time of year for these smallest of gods creatures!

You are right, shorter and slower is better some days!

Running partners are the BEST!!!

Running partners are the BEST, I really think we should have a run planned someday for all of us bloggers and go to breakfast! It was fun running with Laurie acouple of weeks ago, but we live on opposite sides of town, kind of hard to do on a regular basis, but I do want to go with you again Laurie when we can find a time!!! Glad you found someone, is she on the blog? Does she live close by? Enjoy!!!

We missed you this morning but it sounds like a good run. Yesterday I didn't know who you were until Jody told me. And I don't wear glasses. I just dont pay any attention to anything going on around me. Are you doing the Murray 5k?

It would be a good idea to run Murray Fun Days 5 K if you were not planning on it already. Go out at 10:00 pace and see what happens.

I am planning on running the Centerville 5k. The new running partner lives very close and does most of her runs within 1/2 mile of my house. And Leslie, I'm all over a blogger run breakfast:)
