New Running Partner
Okay, first, I got through yesterday's workload relatively unscathed, whew. And dinner with Chris at a local Mexican restaurant (with a really good hibiscus margarita) helped make the rest of the day go well.
I was up at 5:45 this morning to prep for my first run with my friend Barb. She is a triathlete, and coaches TNT. I'm psyched to have met someone who will run in cold, dark, wintry weather with me, woohoo! We met at my house, and took off for a great 3.7-mile run around the neighborhood. I maintained an 11:36 pace (includes a couple walk breaks), which is right quick for me at this point in my training. It was a fantastic run with great company. I'm looking forward to my training this winter! She mentioned that she may be interested in ZG - she's never run trails, so it'd be a first. What fun!
Rest of the week should go fairly easily - and Friday, it's time to take off for Phoenix and have fun at JJ100!
