Ran with my reg running buddy and she brought one more. We were nervous adding someone into our routine but it went really well. She has ran half marathons in the past but not for a while. Right now she is a xtrain coach so she only runs 3-4 miles so we were nervous when she was all about an 8 miler. It was great b/c we kept up with about a 10:30 average. Which is fast for me for a long run. But usually I'm by myself and I think I stop and walk or slow down a lot. yeah "group" runs! Also she is a middle school science teacher so she was giving me these ideas for science stuff for my kids (we both agreed it isn't taught enough before the grade 4) I'm hoping to change that in my first grade room.
Also we were supposed to run 8. I had the Garmin and I swear the miles were just slipping away. I got confused and thought we had another mile to go. I guess running with the right people is a good thing. I"m so glad I found the right people!
p.s. I went to post miles for team Canahan...:( Yeah I guess the goal was met! buy waaah that it is over! |
