9:15 AM

lauren's running the mount desert island marathon right now.

Activity: Running
Distance: 12 miles
Time: 1:47:13
Average: 8:56
Splits: 18:44/2, 9:14, 8:40, 9:08, 1:01:25/7
Weather: 37-45 and gusty!

For not training together, Jon and I have a pretty similar pace. It's nice to have a running buddy :-D He climbed the hill on Park Hills Ave faster than I usually do - pushed me a little!

I looked like I was from the 80s in my long underwear and shorts. Plus, I was wearing a scarf. It's too bad that I don't have a pic to post so that you can appreciate my dorkiness...

My left knee was actually hurting me a little bit on this run. I iced afterward. All things considered, I really feel pretty healthy even tho I ran 20 miles on Tuesday.

I got attacked by a dog in Tudek park! It was this biiig doggie that was probably twice as big as the 90lb woman walking him. I don't know if he was trying to play or what. He sorta ran right into my hip bone.

I didn't have any GU left (need to pick some up before the marathon!), but Jon took a food break on Park. We had to have run thos last 7 miles pretty damn fast when you consider that the time includes food and water breaks. We had to stop quickly a few times at the end of the run when we were in the College/Beaver area. Other than that, it was quite pleasant!

mood: my mom's coming up to visit today!
health: some knee pain. i feel great aerobically tho.
