This was a fun run. I don't often run with people. It seems the running friends I do have all have different schedules. But I was able to hook up with RAD, Calvin, Staci, Becca, and Annette for this run, all of whom I met for the first time. Runs, especially long ones, are so much easier when going with friends. I'm almost jealous that I didn't run the entire 22 because I felt so good after the first 12. Almost. I did get a chance to give a shout out to the group as they hit about mile 19 from my house. That was fun. TOU is Saturday. I'm excited. I hope to meet more FRBs. Are any FRB people planning any hookups I could crash, like at the spaghetti dinner? I'm also excited for the rest of the weekend. My wife and I are staying at the Providence Inn Bed and Breakfast through Sunday in celebration of our 14th Anniversary (it was in August but this is close enough). I can't remember the last time we spent two nights away from all of our kids. I hope I'm not too exhausted and sore to get around and see some sights, etc. Thanks again Rachael for inviting me along. |
