Just another one of those rainy afternoons

Start time: 06/22/05, 5:45pm
Location: W&OD Trail
Distance: 3 miles
Run:Walk ratio: 5:1
Average pace: 10:17min/mile

When Julie and I started out this afternoon, she asked if we could run just four miles instead of five; she wasn’t able to pop home during lunchtime and let the dog out and didn’t want his little bladder to explode. Within a quarter mile, we were making new plans: run just three miles, and then add on a fourth if the storm that looked to suddenly be arriving in Falls Church hadn’t made it in.

Naturally, as is my luck, it showed up at exactly our turn-around point. I was ready to really hoof it back, but Julie wasn’t up for quite the same speed through the rain so I let her drive the pace the rest of the way home. Still a strong average. I’m sad I wasn’t able to get two more miles in (I’d planned on doing extra mileage and having a total of five miles until the storm changed those plans) but better low mileage than electrocuted-Greg.
