BBK workout.

3 slow early miles with RAD.  I don't even remember what we talked about!  

6-7 tempo miles.  Don't know my pace, just know I felt good about the miles.

2 cool down miles with my girl RAD.

Overall this run felt amazing!  I think the cool temp. did factor into the great feeling of this run.  Just felt great to run!  So far I have had just a great running week.  Feels nice to get enough rest when you are pushing the miles.

Met Rachel, Annette and Toby at the JRP not too early.  Great miles.  I was trying to push the pace a little without Rachel knowing.  It was a little cold so the frigid air pushed our pace a little in the beginning.

Dropped Toby and Annette off after 12. Rachel and I kept going for a few more miles.

I honestly did not think my legs would be so heavy when we headed north on the trail... They did!

Rachel and I kept a great conversation and the miles flew by.  We ended with 18... I was happy with that.

I highly enjoyed one of my last runs with the BBKs.  I appreciate running the more I run with them for some reason.  Instead of talking myself out of getting up, I just get up!  I think it's because I know Rachel will be there and I get to hang out with her for a few hours.  I have become her personal running stalker.  No joke!  I find so much joy when I run with her.

We started late for the warm up.  Ran a mile or so up Butterfield Canyon and came back down.

Main workout:  3 miles up the canyon, 3 miles down.  I felt amazing THE ENTIRE time.  :)  It was fun to run with Rachel and protect her from the beast creatures.  I was a little scared myself as we ran up in the dark.

Cool down: Up and down the canyon again.  I don't have a watch so I have no idea paces, just go off of Rachel.

We ended with 11.8!  Watched a tarantula crawl under Rachel's car.  It gave me the chills.  Those spiders are huge!  I imagined sleeping under the stars and having one of those crawl on me during the night.  *Nightmares*

Really great TM workout at the Legacy Center.  I was offered to run the RedRock by one of the girls running there.  Had to turn down the offer cause I'm getting hitched on Monday.  :)  So excited!

Last TM class for a VERY long time.  I will miss my sisters on treads.  :(

My last BBK run. :(  I am pretty sad about it and I try not to think about it.

3 mile warm up.  Legs were nice and dead.

Yasso 800s on the track.  Don't run with a watch, just run by effort.  Effort:  Hard bun burner.  I felt strong start to finish.  Lots of fast people out there today! 

1 mile cool down with Rachel.

:( :( :( :(  Will there be a great running group like this in Texas?
