Early run with Kirsten and Lynn. Kirsten has already been running for a mile and a half by the time she gets to my house, so she's fully warmed up -- which was a problem this morning because the first mile (MY first mile) was fast. Whenever my first mile is fast, it makes my entire run suffer. So, I think next Monday when I run with them, I'll run around my neighborhood for a little while at a warm-up pace before they get to my house. Maybe then, I won't struggle so much to keep up during the rest of the run.

I couldn't bear to have today go by without a run, so did a quick 2 miles on the treadmill.

Instead of a track run today, Lynn and I just ran a regular run - a loop in our neighborhood. I ate breakfast too close to my run, though, and really paid for it with some cramps. It sure is nice to run with a friend!

On the trail with Lynn the whole 8 miles. I was really happy with this run, not just because it's the longest I've ever run, but also because our pace was very consistent the whole time. I felt great the whole time; no pain. But an hour after I got home, my tailbone has been getting worse and worse. Time to go see the chiropractor again. Even icing and staying off it isn't helping much. Bummer.

I was thinking about you the whole run, Lyb. I hope your race went well!!!!
