I was not planning on posting anything today but I have to!
I went for 9 miles this morning.
It was my best LONG RUN ever.
It was perfect.
I am so happy.
The weather was perfect: cool, no wind, no sun (well not really just a shy sun, now as I type this it is out for real!! )
I got up at 5:15 am.
I ran with my babysitter and her friend. 2 young 26 yrs old to keep me company, I loved it!
They did 6 miles and I continued alone for the rest of my run.
The 6 with them went by so fast. I was able to talk to them the whole time, no side pain.
I drank NUUN only and took some sports jelly beans (watermelon with caffeine).
I ran at a faster pace then last week's LR (8 miles), about 14 sec faster.
I am not going to lie I felt GREAT saying goodbye to them and being the one who continues for 3 more miles...and being the older one. :)

Great job!!! Congrats on the awesome long run. Yay! :)
I am thinking of a question or two and will post them later or tomorrow. Have a great Saturday!
No better feeling!
Great. Yeah, this morning was perfect running weather. Down here there was a marine layer on the coast that didn't burn off until after my run. My g.f. met me half way and rode her bike with me. It really helps to run with someone else, passes the time quicker. As exhibited in your run too.
So glad you enjoy perfect weather for that long run!!!
Who would play you in a movie?!
How awesome that you left those young ladies in the dust ( :
Youpidoo :) Love that feeling!
Great job! It's awesome how a gal of 32 (or maybe you're 33;), I can't remember) can keep going after the 26'ers stop!!!
42
Not 32 or 33...I wish!
awesome! I know it is generally hotter in So Cal as compared to Norcal, but the weather literally has been perfect in Nor cal too this week - low 70s, zero humidity, no wind. Perfect running weather. This week is what California is all about.
Glad you had a great run! Congrats on the distance! It's feels great to meet a new distance goal :). Glad the weather is good there.....I did 7 in 31C with 90% humidity...can you say yuk?
Great run! Way to outlast the younger friends! I confess that I felt pretty great when I did that too.
