Notes

Chilly morning run with the Greenville running group. After a bit of running, the temp wasn't so bad. One stretch on the industrial drive was into the wind & pretty brutal, but it went quickly. I didn't try to keep up with Niki, Ed & Chris today. I just took it easy & ran the pace my body was feeling. I really thought my pace would be much closer to 9:20's, so I was very surprised when I finished & saw that I was sub-9 for the entire run!! At about mile 6, I had to stop & get a piece of ice out of Anya's paw, and my pace crashed after. Anya had considerably more energy than I did, and was not happy that her "running buddy", Mila, was up ahead, so she pulled alot on the leash. My shoulder/arm was a bit tired, but it sure was nice of her to pull up the hill! :) I like running with this group. It is large & varied enough that whether I'm having a slow day or a fast day, there will always be someone ahead & behind, so I never feel alone. Never thought I'd be a group runner, but I'm enjoying it. What other good reason is there to get out on a near zero temp morning to run?! Good run overall.
