Day 15: Long Run

The rain that was predicted for most of this week never really materialized, and it was a gorgeous morning for a run. Dave and I walked over to the park with Mickey, and Dave sat on a bench and read a book while Mickey watched squirrels and I ran. After 2.2 miles I really needed to shed my sweatshirt, so I stopped for about 30 seconds to turn ipod, sweatshirt, etc, over to Dave, and then I grabbed Mickey and we ran another 1.1 miles. I love running with my pup--he looks so happy while we run that it makes me laugh out loud--plus paying attention to what he's doing takes my mind off of what I'm doing and makes time seem to go by a little faster :) Anyway, I felt kind of ashamed about my brief stop, so next time I guess I just won't wear a sweatshirt, even though it felt really stinking cold out before I got moving!

Warm-up: 1-mile walk
Run: 3.3 miles, about 29:00
Cool-down: semi-brisk 1-mile walk home
Stretch & situps!

Nice job on the 3.3 miles, missy! No more sweatshirts! ha ha! Seriously, if it's 50 - 60 degrees outside, go for the long sleeved shirt.
