4 Miles

I left the kiddos home again this morning. I was suppose to go to Crossfit, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I've done something to my back. I don't think it's muscles... it feels like my ribs are being smashed and it only hurts when I'm sleeping. When I'm up and moving it doesn't hurt... but it makes sleeping in impossible without a heating pad and Advil. So I decided after getting moving this morning to go for a run. I ran the route that I usually walk with my friends. I ran down a beautiful trail to the edge of Herriman and then turned around and walked home. I guess I didn't do the "full" route, but it was still nice.

I love running and walking with friends, but there's something about being out on my own. Having "alone time". Every Sunday I ask the girls in my class questions... the last one I asked was "What moment have you felt the most alive?" I would have to say... running down some trail/canyon in the fall... alone.  :o) I felt very "alive" and happy. I can't give this up... even if I can't race (yet).

2.3 miles ~ 26 minutes (running...lots of running)
1.7 miles ~ 27 minutes (walking)
