Paula - that is awesome. Kinda glad I spaced out an hour. I did 7.5 at
exactly a 9 minute pace doing the last mile with Christina Robertson.
First time since I can remember that I could just glide mile after mile without
stopping or even thinking about stopping. Amazing what Albuterol can you do
for breathing! I need more drugs for everything else. Heidi wants to do
speedwork tomorrow and I know she likes Crackhead park so maybe I can score
some good stuff there tomorrow?
Forget the running thing - I used to say the only reason that I am successful
at running is because I could "outwork" my competition. Now at my age with a
trashed body - it is all about who can score the best drugs. Do any of our
local races do drug testing? I will try to keep that out of the races I am
involved with.
So Christina and Marti were there too and Deborah K and I ran into Clark, the
PHS track and XC country coach too.
Christina did 13 with Marti then came back out for 3 more and I caught up with
her for her last mile - as she summed it all up "How could I NOT come back out
for a few more miles - this is gorgeous". Now if that doesn't motivate you...
Here are some ideas - 1) Start logging your miles (walk, jog, run, bike,
whatever). 2) Enter an upcoming race in PHX or Sedona. 3) Set any type goal
for yourself. 4) Tell Ken how great he is. 5) Get some new shoes. Splurge.
6) Get a parking pass from City Park and Recs (I printed off the form and
getting mine tomorrow) and then use it so your don't feel guilty. 7) Email
Christina (Piano teacher and concert pianist for those that don't know her) and
get even more motivation on why you should be out there.
All of these things should help you get motivated. Well #4 may not do much but
IT IS a GREAT GREAT idea anyway...

Well it was a great run this morning with Cactus Jon, Cindy, Patty, and I. I
ran into Ken as I was leaving. I don't think it was warm enough for shorts Ken!
Wish I could have done more than 4.2 miles and at a faster pace, but glad I
made it. Now I will rest a couple of days and hope my back spasm that showed up
this morning goes away!
Have a happy New Year everyone!
Paula
Oh, I am running the 10k in Sedona in Feb if anyone wants to carpool, I don't
mind driving. I could take three other people. Let me know.

Since I don't have commitments today and I want a quality run - I am
pushing back my start till 10:30 today at the Peavine because it is just a tad
cold. Warm by Minnesota standard but cold otherwise.
