Today’s Run: \u00a012.22 miles<\/p>\n

Today, we got up early (3:00 a.m.), had breakfast and then went to Boardtown Runners, the running group we meet with on Saturday mornings for our long runs. \u00a0We were there long enough to say “Hi!” and then went out and ran for the next 2:45 and covered 12.22 miles. \u00a0We are very slow (but steady!). \u00a0After that we got back to the meeting house and collapsed for 20 minutes or so before we ran errands. \u00a0You know, I am tired.<\/p>\n

Why in heaven’s name would we run that far on a Saturday morning? \u00a0And that early, too!?! \u00a0Good question. \u00a0Wish I could give you an intelligent answer, but alas, no can do. \u00a0We’re nuts, I guess.<\/p>\n

Actually, we have another Half Marathon coming up in a few weeks. \u00a0It is on January 5, 2013~The Mississippi Blues Full and Half Marathon. \u00a0We are running the Half and you can Google it if you like. \u00a0They have a nice web page. \u00a0It is supposed to be a difficult\/challenging route and I am already having “race dreams”. \u00a0You know, I forgot to take my running shoes…cannot find the starting line…was late to the start of the race…The list goes on and on…<\/p>\n

We did have a cheering section on today’s run. \u00a0We passed cattle and horses. \u00a0Horses, as a rule, are not all that interested in you as you pass but the cows! \u00a0Holy Cow (pun intended)! \u00a0They run along with you along the fence and “Moo” at you~I like to think they are encouraging me~one can always count on a cow to talk to you and follow you.<\/p>\n

We did see a friendly horse today before we got to the cows. \u00a0It was all decked out in a fancy blanket, which from a distance looked polka-dotted but up close had a nice pattern to it. \u00a0The horse stood still and posed so we could take it’s photograph. \u00a0Very thoughtful, do not you think?\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
