More Running!

Wow! More running today. I rarely do this much running or exercising but this past week has been unusual in the fact that I have just found extra time and motivation to push myself to go out more. I wasn't even planning on going out today but my bro-in-law Mike Merrill called and said he needed an easy 6 miles and wanted to know if I wanted to run with him. Now remember, an easy 6 miles for him is a moderate-to-hard 6 miles for me. It is funny running with him because he can chit chat the entire way because of the slow pace. But for me I am running faster than normal and can't do much talking. The reason it is funny is because usually it is me talking everyone's ears off while running, but when I run with Mike I pretty much just have to concentrate. Not to mention that during the last mile he made me sprint a good distance. I hit a 7:13 pace for a bit but quickly backed off or I would have been throwing up.

The time actually shows about 3 minutes where I had to completely stop so I could take off my long-sleeved shirt. It was getting too hot. So really my time and pace was a little better than what is being shown.
