Ran with Jake for the first 4 - neither of us were "feeling it", so I took him home, but I wanted to get in a few more by myself to clear my mind a bit. LOTS of unplanned walking on this one - I just couldn't get my breathing down until the last mile. That last mile felt good. If I'd had more time and my hip wasn't whining, I probably could've gone on (or it just felt better because I knew I was almost done!) I was on the bugline, and honestly, at one point, I felt like I wasn't even moving. The gravel seemed to be moving with me - haha! For the next mile I entertained the idea of a moving walkway being installed on the bugline to help me out. Not very happy with how the run turned out, BUT... I got in some exercise, got a little vitamin D, burned a few calories, tired out Jake, and now I can eat birthday cake (daughter's 12th is today). Happy Thursday!


Happy birthday to the almost-teen! Sounds like a tough one Diane, great job sticking with it through 6.

Happy B-day to your daughter! Hey--6 miles is six miles and any run where the last mile is the easiest mile is better than when it's the hardest!

I don't think walking is a poor substitute! It should be viewed as useful. As usual, you did well.

Thanks, everyone! The cake was good, celebration fun (and squeals of delight when she found out she's going to the Justin Bieber concert in October - with her older sister, not me!). @Jenny - yup, still the same hip issues (still sticking out) - one of these days I'll go in...
