Run Gr8 started a girls run club and Kelli and I decided we wanted to run enough to at least get our free t-shirt :) The longest loop they offer is 7 miles. On a Saturday? Really?!? Whatever. So, Kelli, Amy and I showed up for the 7 mile loop. It was a good run and a good pace (8:30ish, because I finished 7.3 miles in just over an hour). We signed in to get the credit for our miles and headed out again.
We went uphill first which was nice on the way home. From the store out to Bluffdale. We were probably 100yds or less away from the Wal-Mart building and we couldn't see it! The fog was SO crazy thick. I wore my headlamp, not to see, but BE seen. We tried to stay off major roads too.
I sure felt as we headed home that we'd put in a good effort and had decreased that AP down to an 8:10-8:20...HA! Nope. I guess seeing isn't the only sense that has trouble in the fog. We still kept it at around an 8:30 and had a good finishing push, so I can't be too upset. It just really felt like I was putting in a lot more effort than that.
Afterward Amy treated us to bagels and Kelli's heater in her car kept us warm and happy! A wonderful Saturday morning run. Reminds me of why I run...for the people :)
I'll post splits when I'm not too lazy to go to the computer and plug in the Garmin. AP:8:40; splits: 9:42 (trying not to kill ourselves waloging, walk/jogging, across the icy bridge), 8:15, 8:50, 8:29, 8:41, 8:36, 8:38, 8:41, 8:46, 8:55, 8:49, 8:40, 8:41, 8:24, 8:01.
