Ran with Peg and Heidi and then added on 5 after. I am going to the cannery this morning so I had extra time to add on after. I wish I could do that everyday. Felt pretty good. Still waiting for that run when i just feel "awesome". Havent had an "awesome" run since before the marathon and I am so missing that feeling!

k, so I can't keep up with you...but at least you really pushed me! I kept a pretty consistent distance from you until Albertsons, then I lost you for good:) If I knew I was staying I'd come running with (behind) you a couple times a week just to push myself because that was a really fast 5 miles for me.

Marci! I am SO glad to find you! Thank you for leaving a comment...seriously, I felt like such a blog-stalker reading your blog and never commenting (wasn't sure you would know who I was :). You are SO inspiring for me! Yes, Megan and I run together...she lives right across the street from me, so it is PERFECT! We run about 3 times a week together, but I am trying to find another group to run with on alternate days. Do you know any local groups who run first thing in the morning? I'd love to run 6 days a week, but am totally a chicken about running solo (got followed once and it scared me SO bad). Anyways, sorry to bug you for info :) You are awesome and if I ever get fast enough, we should run together sometime!

Whats your usual pace right now? You could always come run with us over here on tues/thurs. There is another girl in my ward that is probably close to your speed and she wants to come too, you two could hang together if you didnt feel you could keep up just yet. Usually tues/thurs and sat are about 8:30-8-45 min mile. You should come but I should give you Beka's number because she wants to get faster too. She just bearly joined the blog. So good to hear from you and Megan is an awesome person and runner. If you want to call me Nat has my number!
