7 miles in the upper 60s!

Runs don't get much better than this. A friend of mine came over and we started out at 6:15 to get 7 miles in.  The weather was perfect....overcast and highs in the upper 60s.  The cool breeze was delightful. 

My friend is a bit slower than me...so I could really chat it up while we ran 12 minute miles.  It was nice not to stress about time and just enjoy the beauty of the run.  She finished strong.  I had her sprint the last 1/4 mile and she got down to an 8:30 pace. 

What a great way to kick off my Thursday.  It is a busy day today....but my neighbors will surely be in my thoughts and prayers.  Today is the funeral for his Dad.  Never easy to lose a parent...I surely know that all too well.

Nice run! Loving this weather too! Good call with the plain chobani...i love my greek yogurt but I like the fruity ones with all the sugar...not so great...
