Listened to the rain falling pretty good around 5am and wondered if I really wanted to venture out. But then I remembered Kim running in rain (and snow?) seemingly most days all May so I ventured out at 6. Not a single person showed up from the SF group at the usual meeting place. Saw Hal in his truck and talked a bit but other than that didn't see a single other runner out. Don't remember the last time that happened on a Saturday morning. Maybe a couple were doing UVM but I don't think most were. Very strange.
I survived the 6 mile run experiment but I sure am out of shape. HR averaged 160 for 9:20 pace. But just happy to be able to run without pain. Sure is a bummer that when I can finally run then Kim gets pneumonia and can't get out. Happy to see her slowly getting better but we're not sure when running will be a wise thing. She has done really well dealing with it though, very inspiring and I'm proud of her.
Afterward went to the Provo Mall to see the marathon finishers. Seems like most people did well and achieved their goals. It was great to see all the bloggers come in, especially my old bud Terry 'old' Bean who I had sold my entry to. He did me proud and got his sub-3 and still looked pretty good afterward. Good job! |
