4 mile run this morning in 8:11!

3 mile run with the running group for Turkey Trot practice, we ran the route, they did GREAT.  They finished in 33 minutes!  This will be a first race for about 1/2 of the runners :) 

I tried out Rob's minimalist shoes to run the second run, oh my, they were AWESOME!  I had no idea!

OMGosh, I ran the route today of an upcoming race I'm interested in and WOW, it was hard!  Either up hill (ouch) or steep downhill (ouch)!  I was guessing it would take me about 90 minutes and it took 93 minutes at a 9:20 pace!
