Running to catch up

Well, I've fallen behind on my mileage log but I haven't stopped running. I have gone every other day save one skpped day since the last entry, and run a total of 204 minutes all told. That gives me an additional 17 miles. Horray for me!

The most memorable run was on Mothers' Day. I went with Matthew on his bike and his friend Ziggy on a scooter. We ran/rode to Ziggy's house, about 1.3 miles away. Ziggy almost gave up and stayed there, but at the last minute he decided to leave the scooter and run back with us. Well, he beat me! I'm getting a rematch in the Fall! I suspect he'll always be faster though. It was a fun morning.

My next goal is to run every other day and one long run every week (long now is 32 minutes), progressively increasing the long run. It's catching!

New Motto: I used to microwave, now I just eat nuts and berries.
