What a rough start to get to this run! I worked all day and was planning on getting a bite to eat, going home, getting to the running store to get different shoes, and then go for a 10-mile run.I got out of work – got some dinner, sat in lots of traffic, finally got home and decided it was to late to make it to the store. I got dressed and ready to go, and it started to rain. Ugh. So I went to the gym. I got a good 2 miles in on the treadmill before they closed. Early hours on Sunday…

I ended up driving home and running 6 more miles around my neighborhood. It was sprinkling most of the time, but not enough that I got that wet. I really don’t like running in my neighborhood. I think it is boring! I would rather run straight up a bike path and then back again. And maybe the hilly streets have something to do with it as well…

I got in 8 miles before heading inside to get ready for some company’s arrival. I figured that it was far enough, especially since I was getting up in less than 12 hours to do a really long run…
