Oops ... originally posted this on Friday!!!
24 miles total, split into two runs because of a graveside service I needed to attend.
10 miles @ 7:59 w/JohnnyV (I have to be honest here though ... my pace really should be in the 8s but I stopped for a breather before hitting a really fast last mile to bring my pace down to that. Stink!!! Why do I do that???) * Actually 8.5 miles with Johnny and 1.5 by myself.
It was AWESOME to run with Johnny again (although the horrible wind was not awesome at all). It had been a while since I have run with him and todays run reminded me why I love running with him so much. He tries to get me to use more common sense in my running -- which is what I need. Thanks Johnny!!!
later:
14 miles with Smooth and Kathie (not 100% sure on the pace, I will have to wait for Smooth to post our splits)!!! I had so so so so SO much fun!!! It was great to be with the harem. Kathie has forbade Smooth and I to reveal many of the details of today's run, but needless to say, we had a riot!!! I definitely need to run with those two more often. Wonderful miles!!! Kathie and Smooth had been running for 8 miles by the time I was able to join them, and so Kathie left when she hit a little over 17 miles (she only needed 16) and then Smooth and I were on our own for the final 5. I just have to say one thing about the remaining five miles: SMOOTH IS HARDCORE!!!! She seriously is amazing. Her final mile of her 22 miler was her fastest and came in at 7:56!!!! And she thinks she is not getting faster!!! Who is she kidding!!! I was so so so impressed.
AND ... a special shout out to my three youngest who are celebrating birthdays today and tomorrow!!!
I am the luckiest mom in the world!!! :) |
