8 Really IS Great!

Aw yeah! This time, 8 miles turned out to be just fine. It might even be the farthest I've run, considering that I stuck to the 3:1 run/walk ratio the entire time. My legs were giving me some trouble, but I kept truckin... I know that running with the team helped me again this week, because I was feeling like slowing down towards the end. I made a new friend—Lisa—and we ran the 8 miles together. I'll only see her for a few more weeks though, because she's training for the Virginia Beach half marathon over Labor Day weekend.

Next week seems daunting: I have to do 12 miles, and I'll be in San Francisco on vacation. It's going to be tough. I need to figure out a route, and then once I get there I need to EXECUTE! It's gonna be really tough... I sent Helen a text to see if she might stoop to my slow-ass level and run with me. I think it would help me a LOT. But I understand if she just wants to enjoy her vacation. :)
