My little neighbor Maya came over to run 5 miles with me. AP 9:40. Not bad for an 11 year old. Maya beats my son in all the track meets at the 200 in the 400. She's really talented. She stuck with me all 5 miles even when she could have easily gotten off the trail at 4 miles. These kids are so full of strength and beauty, it's giving me energy just to run along side them this Summer.

You are a wonderful example/trainer for the YW in your neighborhood!! How neat that an 11 yr old can run 5 miles sub 10 pace?!? I need to get my daughter running with me :(

So, what is this about you moving? I thought you loved your house on the river? Where did you move to?

Sweet run with your little friends! I ditto RAD!

IS it true you're moving? where? Are you running Park City? will I see you then? I hope so. I really miss you this whole summer!

Let's not talk about the moving. I am sad to my core to let go of this little group of young people my children have access to. But I got a screaming deal on bank owned home located about a half mile from my work. It will give me about 40-60 extra minutes a day at home and the schools feature programs my children need to be exposed to. I am doing it for them and can't even really face the reality of either leaving my neighborhood or "my" trail. I'll still have Saturday runs here, and I won't be selling this house so it will still be "mine" even though I'm renting it out.....

I am running Park City with Cath, although not registered. I missed the deadline (again). We both are trashed though and are planning another 4:20 as a goodbye hurrah before she moves to Tennessee. I lose all my best friends out of state eventually.
