I started today’s run with some trepidation. \u00a0I was afraid. \u00a0Wednesday’s run had been scary. \u00a0Today was another warm one. \u00a0The sun was shining but there was a small breeze. \u00a0That turned out to be my salvation.<\/p>\n
Before I left on my run I fueled up with my regular cheese grits and a cup of coffee. \u00a0I make an entire bowl of grits but only eat a little bit. \u00a0The chickens really, really like grits and I give them my leftovers. \u00a0They get upset with me if they do not get their morning grits and we cannot have that! \u00a0I also drank some Gatorade before I left. \u00a0I wanted to make sure I was well hydrated.<\/p>\n
Off I went.<\/p>\n
Today’s schedule called for a minimum of seven miles. \u00a0The route I took today was hilly but it had some shade. \u00a0It thought it might help me a bit as it was already rather warm.<\/p>\n
They are building a new house about a half a mile from my house and the workers were out doing whatever it is that they do. \u00a0They waved and said, “Morning, Ma’am.” \u00a0I waved back and kept going.<\/p>\n
Made it to the top of Evans Road and turned onto Limerock Road. \u00a0Limerock Road is all sunshine for two miles. \u00a0Cotton fields on my left and cattle on my right. \u00a0Here we go…<\/p>\n
Because of the breeze, Limerock Road was a breeze! \u00a0I decided to go all the way to where Limerock Road dead ends. \u00a0This would be more than my planned seven miles but I had told MFH (My Favorite Husband) that I was going to go very slow this morning so he would not worry if it took me a little bit longer than originally planned.<\/p>\n
Got to the end of Limerock, drank some Gatorade and turned around to head back. \u00a0Two miles later, turned back onto Evans Road. \u00a0Zoom! \u00a0The next thing I knew I was turning onto my road. \u00a0Half a mile to go!<\/p>\n
There were the construction guys working away. \u00a0They stopped and said, “Morning, Ma’am” again. \u00a0I waved again. \u00a0Turned the corner went up the driveway and stopped my Garmin.<\/p>\n
100 minutes of wonderful! \u00a0Sweet! \u00a0I will have to do that again. \u00a0Soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
