4 in the books!

Just an easy 4 miles this morning.  It was a great way to start the day.  Very relaxing.  And now the rest of the day will be crazy!  Gotta pack, go to work, come home, do last-minute stuff then drive to Colorado for our family vacation.  Doesn't look like I will get my long run in tomorrow but I'll just use Sunday as a rest day then run on Monday when I usually rest.  I doubt I'll be able to post while we're gone but look forward to some cool running pictures from Breckenridge when I get back!  I'm looking forward to the scenery but not the change in elevation or the hills!

Not much to take a picture of this morning since I started and finished the run in the dark.  So you get me ... standing under a street lamp since my phone doesn't have a flash!


Split times today were 9:17, 9:07, 9:09, 8:39 (9:03 average).  I'm happy with that.  Was trying to stay around 9:00.  And I felt good today.  No pain in my shin.  Felt a little something in my left hamstring but nothing I'm concerned about.  I'll just stretch it out.  And I fixed the chaffing problem for now ... ran in tight shorts (kinda like bike shorts).  That really helped.  The chaffing was so bad that I could barely walk yesterday!!  ROFL!  Running is such a dignified sport.  :P

Have a great week!  See ya when we get back from vacation.
