Felt horrible yesterday…the pain of the trainer was nearly too much to handle so I ended up not running.
This morning I really didn't want to get out of bed but I managed to pull myself up even when my wife said she needed more sleep and was not going to run this morning.
Got to Kristin's house to find out that Melissa wasn't joining us either so it was just the two of us…that spells trouble for me since she is a faster runner. She asked how far I wanted to go and I told here 5-6 so we opted to do our "regular run" - Newman to 3 mile to Emertsen - but in stead of turning on Sandy we turned on Potomac and made our way over to Newman for the run back.
Only a short walk at the 5k point…Kristin kept me moving and talking. I'm grateful to her for slowing down a bit and running with me since it is always nice to catch up on the run. We ended the day with 5 miles exactly at about a 9:09 pace.
The nearly full moon was in the sky, temp was around 55-60, virtually no wind, and very low humidity…what a beautiful day for a run!!
