it was a beautiful day in the neighborhood...

5 miles! Long enough for a water stop!

In contrast to last week's inclement weather workout, today was brilliantly sunny and clear. It was cold still but once you get going you appreciate the coolness.

Running feels good. I really like the combination of sometimes running alone and sometimes with others. I find that when Dan or the mentors run with me it kicks my pace up a little bit but still in a comfortable way. When I run alone I put on my headphones. Today, Bright Eyes' First Day of My Life come on which is terrible as a running song but matched the sunny gorgeousness of a saturday morning at Pt. Defiance.
