I'm not fast and never will be, but I love to run. I've completed all but one of the half-marathons with my dad. He and I will be running in the NYC Marathon together. We've gotten my mom into running too.
I also run short distances with our yellow lab, Allie, and sometimes we get Drew, my husband, to go along. We completed the River City 10K together in April, his first 10K. |

8:56 average pace. Access Road trail loop down by the river with Allie. Her first run at Point Mallard since her having a her surgery- she loved it! Beautiful morning down by the river.
Long run tomorrow- 12 miles! | | Comments(1) |
| | Point Mallard trails down and back x2 with a little extra to make 12 in the wave pool parking lot. 1hr 56 min 20 sec- 9:42 average pace. Felt good. Started to ache in the hips and lower back a little bit towards the end. | | Add Comment |

A little over three miles approximately. Just a short, slow jog with Allie in the morning to get her out and running. Didn't wear my garmin to keep up with pace and time. Allie got attacked by a dog down the street from the cabin at the river, so no more running in that direction down there again! She's okay though. | | Add Comment |

Hills this morning. A few seconds less than a 10 minute mile pace, as usual.

| | Point Mallard Trails; humid today! 9:45 average pace. | | Add Comment |
| | Point Mallard Trails after work. 9:23 pace. Was reminded of why I run in the morning instead of after work- it was no fun in the afternoon- hot and humid and tired from the day. Looking forward to tomorrow's morning run. | | Add Comment |

Refuge Road out and back, doubled up on hills today. Forgot my Garmin, so not sure of pace and exact distance, but think it was probably about a 10 minute mile pace as usual with hills. Morning runs are much better!!
Will take it easy the rest of the week because of Half Marathon in Napa-Sonoma, Ca on Sunday! | | Add Comment |

Morning run at Goose Pond in Scottsboro (there for work). Hilly run- took it easy, 10 min + mile pace.
Off to California tomorrow! | | Add Comment |
