Long Run 2:02:18

Thursday, Nov 12, 2009

I had a rest day yesterday. I went into work hoping I would get out early enough to enjoy some the afternoon and the beautiful weather but I caught up in the project and ended up spending the whole day there.  Joey was away for a concert in London Ontario this week so Martina and Jon invited me over for a really nice family dinner so I wouldn’t starve. Dinner was deliciuos! I still can’t get over how affectionate their pets are. Luna likes sitting on my lap!

So, on with today’s run. Jon gave me a bottle holder to try out this week. I was surprised that the holder felt comfortable. I felt a bit geeky at first but then forgot that I had the thing strapped around my waist. Mel and Ian joined us this morning so we had a good little group. We ran from the lakes to Mt. Work Park via Willis Point Rd. Ian took us on a little detour trail that took us around Killarney Lake.  Prospect Lake Rd to the W Saanich Rd rail trail took us back to the lakes. It was a great run. I felt strong so I asked Jon if I could go longer today. He flatly said, “No.” haha!

One week before I leave for Japan!
