1:36:00 AP:9:34 9:53, 9:43, 10:02, 9:50, 9:31, 9:45, 10:20, 8:48, 8:53, 8:54 I met Catherine this morning for a 10 mile run. I'm not sure WHY I chose the hilliest route EVER, but I did. I don't think Catherine will ever run with me again :) The road construction by my house is getting a tad better, so we ran up the monster hill on my main street. Oh...such a nice way to start a run! Then we turned and ran up a 2 mile long....long....long hill. Thankfully, there was a drinking fountain at the top. Then we took another turn and headed UP to the mouth of the canyon. And the winds started. My heart was beating SO fast and I could hardly utter any words. Catherine was running effortlessly!! We hopped on the golf course trails and found another drinking fountain. Finally, we were able to got down some of those monsters we climbed. Just one hill on the way back. And it kicked my tail!!!! But the last 3 miles were so nice compared to what we had just accomplished. Today was definitely "quality"! We had awesome conversation (on the way back...breathing too hard on the way there). The verdict is still out on how my ankle feels. I iced it immediately. We'll see. Spent 2 hours on my plot at the ward garden, then another at my home garden. THEN, we shoveled 4 yards of turkey poop to all the flower beds. Gotta get everything looking spiffy for the baptism in a few weeks. I am SO darn tired!
