Michelle reached out about running together today!  I was nervous about being too slow for her…..she was nice enough to go my pokey pace.

I knew today wouldn’t be as fast as last week since we didn’t go down the canyon, but the effort was there.

I had a hard time seeing the paces on my watch (old lady eyes).  Maybe could have gone a bit faster.

Time to recover…recover…recover!!!!

Side note:  I ran a 7:30 mile during mile 13 today.  My fastest mile during my April time trial was a 7:40.  Boom!
