great "tennis" 00:45
A (very) little tennis with the family! A fantastic night to be out. I actually can't play worth a darn and it was mostly chasing after the balls when I missed them...

Wow what great weather again tonight! I felt really energetic to start out but poor nutrition caught up with me at the top of the hill at mile 5. The pizza really wasn't worth it... :0) But... read more

#dailymission Running in the dark: is it safe? Probably not. But there are probably a lot of things we do in this world that wouldn't be considered "safe." I try to be wise, but I... read more

I think running in the dark is ok if you wear the reflective clothing or a blinking arm band or something to let people know you are there.

good Hawk Loop plus neighborhood 4.01 mi 00:37 09:13 pace
I think it was around 78* when I went out and a little humid, so the overcast skies were actually a relief. Breckan rode her bike while I ran. I will sure miss her company when she's gone!

Yes it is good to run without your garmin friend once in awhile. It can be freeing in some ways but I have to prepare my mind for it beforehand. I find it really horrid how easily we get addicted to something like our watch! Nice run!

LOL i ran last night unplugged to and I am so annoyed that I didn't use my ipod cause I really wanted to know our pace. I think we ran faster than I normally do but who know's for sure :)

Hey I'm right there with you, Kari! I rarely run unplugged by myself. Most of the time I just really like knowing my pace and such. Unless I'm running with a group.
