Day 1 (of my Blog)

Well here it goes...

2 loops at Highbanks with MD this morning at 8:00. Easy pace just getting caught up with MD. He didn't hammer all the hills today like he usually does. When the trail or road tips up, MD likes to speed up. It was about 20 with wind-chill but didn't feel too cold. I had the option to run with Nemo and GS at 5:30 am but I wasn't going to run in the dark if I didn't have to. These two cats are dedicated to the 5:30 am runs due to family commitments. Quite impressive.

I'll give a little description of the run but we'll refer to this run as the Highbanks Woods Loop going forward.

"Dripping Rock" 2.5 miles + "Overlook Trail" 2.3 miles. We don't do all the out and backs either so it is probably close to 4.5 miles. We'll occasionally include the "Coyote Trail Run" loop as well. It is a grassy meadow run. Highbanks is hilly compared to our other locations so it is always a little slow.

Stats:
9 miles (no timing)
162 lbs - not race weight but OK for 1 month into the off-season.

Welcome to the BLOG world. I am excited to hear about your runs and progress. I am glad that I had a positive influence on you 9 years ago. I am not bitter that you have a faster marathon time, Ironman time, or even the fact that you have qualified for Boston. I will just take the credit for getting you where you are.
