Ran w/ Lily  & Lyns again.  Did the river trail loop twice.

~ a more exciting post below ~

planned on meeting lily at 6am.  came outside at 5:55 and heard a child's voice.  freaked me out.  what kind of kid is awake and outside at 5:55?  looked down and saw it was Crystal and her 5 year old son going for a walk.  I didn't say hi b/c I did not want to scare them, and they went on their way.  Met Lily and went on river trail then past kamrie's elementary school where we saw crystal and collin again, this time said hi and collin asked his mom if he could go with us. :) we ran back to our houses to wait for lyns.  We were early so we did a figure 8 in our neighborhood blocks.  Lyns came out and we picked up the pace a bit.  Did the full river trail loop and dropped of Lily then added 1.5 so Lyns could get 5 miles today.  Lynsey and I decided we are going to try to do more speed work.  Or at least try for the last mile or two to really pick up the speed.

No ghost, bear, or skunk stories to blog about today? That's it?

cool let me talk to wes b/c he sometimes runs w/ larry. I bet we could do 5:30 - 6:30 and he would be cool running at 6:30...maybe :) i'll let you know.

From Lily on Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 21:41:09 from 67.199.180.190

Oh it's okay, I don't want to overtake Wes's running time. I'll probably just go to the gym and run at 5 then. :)
