Morning 4 miler

So I got up and was a bit excited about running. Well at first I snoozed my alarm and crawled back into bed....but I was awake so I got up and got ready. I knew it was going to be a good "short" and semi-easy run since I was running with Goober. I am so proud of her. I know mornings aren't her preference but she did great! I hope she does sign up for a half marathon with me next year. :)

I digressed...I got up, got dressed and headed out. Started with a walk to give the Garmin some time to pick up the satellite. Once it picked it up, we were off. It was slow at first but I welcomed it. It has been a long time since I have done a run in the morning that I was happy to not be out there trying to beat myself up. It was dark and very quiet in the park and I was so not looking forward to running it back on my own but I survived. I didn't like that the lights were off at one point during my run back but oh well.

So we did a little over 2 miles out in about 30 minutes that I took off on the way back because I knew I would be late to get ready and therefore late to work (what else is new). The run back was more intense and it felt great that I warmed up the first 2 miles. I cannot wait to load up my results to see the difference between the run to Woodhaven versus the trip back. I will definitely be doing this again. I hope she is up for it on Thursday morning though it would have to be earlier and we have a late night the night before. Well we shall see.

I'm a bit nervous about the 15K but I know I can make it. I am not breaking any records but i am definitely going to make it. :)
