For Marion's benefit alone, I wore the Garmin-- which I have not used in a few months (according to the history setting-- 5 miles on November 26th). Anyway, I got to run this morning with the famously friendly and lovely Marion! I haven't run more than 8 miles in a while, so I brought the Garmin to gauge it. I never can tell how far I'm going when I don't give myself a time limit or care about the M/M. It was so fun to chat up Marion. She now knows my life story, and I know she likes Golden Retreivers. Not exactly a fair exchange (looks like I need to get out of the house more often). I thought we we'rent going to get in enough miles going my regular route, so I had us double up on one segment of the trail and by the time we'd turned around we'd already done the 9 we were supposed to be running. So we ended doing 11.18 oops. Never run with me if you actually care about mileage, or speed. There is a reason I have not kept track using my Garmin since my hip gave out and this is it, but I told Marion I'd post for her sake:
10:10/10:18/10:28/11:09/11:06/11:49/11:01/12:23/11:49/11:50/13:01 and 12:/58 for .50 But the Garmin guaged I'd used over 1,000 calories-- at least all that ice cream I ate yesterday didn't go to waste.....:) Thank you Marion! Let me know when we can trek again in some fabulous new location.
