getting ready

Good morning all, I ran a good 8 miles this morning taking 1 hour and 43 minutes (7:12 - 8:55).
Yes it was slow but hey it's Christmas. Thank God I found a training program to prepare me for Gasparilla. I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, don't eat too much and let's remember the reason for the season which is Jesus Christ our Lord.

round and round

Running on the Brandon High track was interesting. Going around 26 times (6.5 miles for that day) I thought that I was going to go crazy; at the end of it, not bad at all. A good friend of mine accompanied me around the track even though he ran about a lap and a half. My goal was to see how many times that I could lap him. I finished my cool down lap right before the rain started; talk about perfect timing. The Lord kept it dry for me so that I could finish running :)
