Running with Jim

Today Jim surprised me by telling me he wanted to go on a 7 mile run with me.  The temperature was about 40 but with the strong wind it felt more like 25.  I wore a vest but wished I had worn a jacket.

The workout was 2 miles easy warm up (11:09, 11:05).  This was a nice easy pace for a warm up.  Then 3 miles at a faster pace (9:36, 9:26, 8:58).  This felt pretty good.  The course was rolling hills.  Then there were two miles of easy cool down (10:24, 10:31). 

My right foot and ankle has been bothering me off and on for a while.  This morning it was aching.  I took the warm up slow.  At one mile I was thinking about turning around and heading back because my foot hurt but then it loosened up and felt better for the rest of the run.

Half way through the run we ran into Kathy and Marti running toward us.  Who else would be out running on a windy cold day?
