12 Miles, on a Monday . . . .?

Yikes, 12 miles this morning. It was actually a pretty good run. Kind of on the cold side, so I wore the magic gloves (thanks Faye, if your reading), I also put out a water drop and Gu on my way in, so I was feeling very strong. Of course, it was just me and the Forerunner, but it was a good run. I started off at the HQs building, cut on up through 3d SFG (my old unit) and hit Chicken Road. I stayed on Chicken Road through the access control point and past MacRidge. I ran past several ranges, but, nobody was firing. There were a few units that were setting up, but I was a little too early for them. I turned around at 6 miles, hit my Gu stop and came on back. Gotta say, the Gu and water were on the cold side this morning, kind of sat in my stomach for a while, but, hey, not like it snowed on me or anything. 7:21 pace for the 12 miles, faster on the way back, so, negative split.

Speed work out on Wednesday, maybe I can guilt some of the other guys into coming out and running with me.

Ok...I have to ask...What is your favorite flavor of Gu?

The bikes are coming down this weekend and heading to the shop. My last day at Sprint is Friday so I will have plenty of free time to hit the saddle. I need to look for a training program on line...

Any ideas?

luv ya!
