Lovely little twilight run with Mik'L and Shauna. It was my first time to meet Shauna--what a treat! I hope we can do this again sometime. We ran around a humoungous lake--crossing over it twice on suspension bridges. It was fun to talk. I discovered that running in really deep sand can hurt as much as a very steep hill! Lucky for me the sandy stretches weren't that long. Ave. pace 10:34.
James and I got up at 4:30 to watch the trials. I was quite shaken by the death of Ryan Shay! This is partly due to the fact that I've had to come pick up James from an ambulance after a run. I just feel so sad for his wife and family...
Congratulations Paul and Sean! You are a credit to the blog and to distance running! Logan, I am so sorry it didn't turn out as you had hoped, but I am so grateful you are okay. You have only just begun to see where your talent and dedication can take you! Nobody makes the Olympic Trials in marathon after only 3 years of running! It is just amazing. |
