6 miles w/ Heather out on a trail (mix of sand & rocks) I can tell I'm going to tired from this run today.  But it was FUN, couldn't be on autopilot (like I am so many mornings) had to watch the rocks.

Something amazing happened tonight.  JIM RAN! Yes, that's right.  My non-runner hubby actually ran 2 miles! I wanted to take a walk with him after dinner, he wanted to go train Jiu-Jitsu- so HE offered to RUN the 2 miles to make it quicker.  Although I should have felt slighted that he was trying to rush through our quality time- I couldn't help but quickly take him up on the offer.  It was the first time we have EVER ran together. Honestly the first time I think I've seen him really run (and I've know him for 20 yrs) so that's a BIG deal.  He did quite well, averaged 11:12 with a couple walking breaks.  He ran most of the route.  I think he kinda liked it, but we'll see what his calves say in the morning...(snicker...)

Sweet afternoon run on the trails.  It was HOT (high 80's) and a bit windy.  But I was feeling good , 8:54 av. pace.

Wow- where has the week gone? I've been babysitting my 3 yr old niece and the week has flown by.  I've also been busy with job interviews which have cut into my gym time.  I was going to do weights at 9am class Tues & today, but ended up with job interviews at both times.  Now I just need to do something today so I don't feel like a sloth.  I will try to get some weights & toning in at home this evening. Hold me to it!

Met up w/ Heather & Alison today.  It was Alison's first time running with us.  She usually runs 3 miles a few days a week, but she was game for a 4.25 route today.  She did great, had to stop for a side cramp a couple times, but I can tell that after a couple weeks she could easily increase her distance.  She is very fit & I hope I can be as motivated as she is in  a few years (she's 7 yrs older than me with busy teenagers)  We dropped Alison off at home and did another 1.25 mi.  Average pace today was 10:00.

Once again, I love how this blog puts me in touch with great people! Today I ran with Carrie for the first time.  She's so upbeat and nice, very enjoyable run. Always fun to share ideas with another mom too! Heather, Carrie & I ran 7.27 mi. in 9:36 av. pace.  Pretty good considering it was a hilly course and we were all sleep deprived!
