great Monday Lunch/Amy Run 5 mi 00:36 07:11 pace

I realized this morning I hadn't been to top of East Rock since New Years Day. So today I decided to end that streak and head to the top (had some extra motivation after watching the Run For Refugee race yesterday that goes about 1/2 way up).

About a mile into this run, another runner who I see all the time came up beside me. We started chatted a bit - introduced ourselves. Found out he runs for "the other" club in the area that beats us at all the USATF races. He was holding back to chat with me - so when we parted ways I snuck a peak and he took off.

Beautiful view from the top per usual....I think today was the fastest I've ever gotten up and back on this run. Now the debate to have one more evening of decadent eating (Super Bowl leftovers) or not.

    You were inspired today! Perhaps it was your rival that got you going.

    We only went halfway up?? Don't know that I ever want to go all the way up. That view had better be spectacular...

    Thanks everyone - im sure the running in shorts in February is keeping my spirits up and making runs like this happen. @Susan - when we get our Friday runs started back up, I'll take you all the way to the top. The view is so worth it....
