Total Distance

8.00

Today felt really pretty good. The first mile or so my right shin bugged just a bit, but then it felt a bit better. I really wanted to try to go a bit faster especially since I was so slow running trails on Saturday. Just ran in the neighborhood. I was passed on Pleasant View drive by some young kid that was all lungs and legs... man it is amazing to see some one run so fast so effortlessly, or at least it looked that way to me. As I was coming up 1000 back to Pleasant View drive I seen a runner quite a was up, but as I was running I could tell I was gaining on her. So I made the goal to beat her to the top. Well she crested right before me so goal was then to pass her by the school crossing sign... I did :) I think that was the fastest I have run 1000 north street. Any way pretty good day. I need to clean up the whole family is coming over for a BBQ!!

8 miles - average 8:53

Way to pass the girl! I was trying to keep up with a specific runner for a while and was able to do it for a little while, but then she had more of a kick in her than I did and she lost me.

Have fun at your BBQ!

I LOVE trying to catch people while running---especially when they have no clue I am coming!

NICE!! It's fun to 'race' people when you're just out for a run :)

Have a wonderful evening!

So much of running is mental. Your hill story is a great example. Hope you had a great weekend.
