A Perfect Plan

Today was a busy day, and I am exhausted! I did my run first thing in the morning, then headed to campus for a couple of meetings. I met with my reserach project partner, Kelly, all day about our upcoming paper and research. We took a "break" to attend a fellow student's dissertation. I got home around 6, and walked right out the door for the Cubs game. We stopped to eat on the way (of course) and then went to the game. Now I am home, getting ready for tomorrow...which happens to be my Birthday.

Although I planned out a route last night, after talking to Jeff I decided to switch it up a bit and re-mapped it this morning. It must have been fate, because I ran for exactly 40 minutes and 32 seconds - starting and ending at my own front door! How perfect of a route was that?????

Training Log
Time:  40.32 minutes  Distance:3.86 miles   Pace:  10:30min/mi
So like I said, I planned out a perfect route. It was a pretty long run for me, at least for a solo run. I did that one run prior to leaving for Vegas that was 60 minutes (and felt like 60 days) but this was the frist time we have had a 40 minute run scheduled during our weekly training. It was long, but I survived. It was also hot...and ending the run was not a disappointing moment for me ;)
Progress Made
