Ran 5 at an easy pace. I was around 9:15 min pace.
I need to make sure I carry my cell phone with me when I run now, since it'll always be dark or about dark when I'm running. On this run, I saw some boys fighting over a bike, but it looked like they were just playing. But when I ran closer to them, one of the boys shouted for help. I wasn't about to wade in, so I went into a nearby gas station to report it. I don't know what happened because I didn't want to go back and get involved.
Anyway, I don't worry about running in my neighborhood, really, but I do worry about some of the adjacent neighborhoods. I wish 1) I had a treadmill or 2) I could talk myself into a gym membership for a few months. The prob with a gym membership is that it just means more time away from the kids (which = more guilt for me!). |
