The route I took heads up some hills and it's a little tough for the first mile or so. The wind was blowing that the temps were dropping but it was still pretty warm I think it dropped from 58 down to the high 40's. Feeling good through this run. At one point in mile 5 as I hopped up onto the sidewalk I had this sudden memory from when I first started running. I was near the end of a run and went to hop on the sidewalk, just like today, and almost fell on my face. I could barley lift my leg, and hopping was just not going to happen. Today I hopped up on the sidewalk and just kept running without even a hesitation. It felt good.
Today as I neared the end of my run my phone beeped a text, so I pulled it out to make sure it was not an emergency...this is what I saw....
Yes my dear son, who knows I'm out running wants to know...WHAT'S FOR DINNER!?!?!? I just laughed...needless to say when I got home I told him dinner was whatever he wanted to cook for himself.
And me? I got 6.2 miles done and that much closer to a cupcake! And today I'm feeling strong and ready for that 1/2 marathon.

Nice run! I get so mad when I hear my phone going off during long rides. I know it's my daughter and I know it's not going to be an emergency, and I know that if it is an emergency I'm in the middle of nowhere and will be of no help...but I always have stop and check it anyways.
I have a 6 miler on the schedule for tomorrow a.m. Hope mine goes as well as yours.
Yahooooo! Kudos for a great run.
You should have text back that there had better be enough food for the "both" of you when you got home from the run! LOL
Kids.......at times wish we could sell 'em! LOL
Nice run!!
I am the cook at my house, no one asks me that question anymore, because I always answered "Whatever I feel like cooking"
great run!! What did he make YOU for dinner??
That is too funny about "What's For Dinner?" No one in the house asks me that question anymore either because they don't like what I am eating! Their loss!
Yay for an awesome run! You have come so far and you are doing amazing!!
That's too funny about your son's text, but I love your response even more..ha ha!
Great job! It's awesome to look back once in a whils and realize just how far you've come.
keep it up!
That's funny....I don't take my phone with me on runs....I know I should. Great job on the run.
