and 9.1 to go.
I ran the 4 miles I told you all about yesterday. The run wasn’t bad. It had a couple of really long stretches of road in it. 3/4 of a mile or so without a turn. I am used to more turns than that. My pace was slower at 12:30 but I completed the entire run without walking.
I wish I had shuffled the iPod this morning. My regular ending song came on at the regular time: 33:45. My final song is a quick little ditty by Joe Ely that pushes me over the last 1/4 mile. Except this morning at the conclusion of Joe’s live cut of “Me and Billy the Kid” I still had 12 minutes (an entire mile) to go. A bit deflating.
Wifey just hit the road for a ten miler and she is wearing her new running skirt. It was a birthday gift (at her request). She should be back in about 80 minutes. I need a shower, fluids and some first aid!

Bryan –
Great job! Keep at it. My running “partner” moved about 2 months ago. Thankfully my wife replaced him w/an iPod nano. Chris, if you’re reading this, you’re worth $199. Anyway, I bought the Nike+ add on mileage tracker. Not sure if you have the nano, but if you do, try the Nike+.
BTW – thanks for the lead on the running skirts.
