I'm running late for work today. I think my son had the right of it when he said the day after the Superbowl should be a holiday! But, I didn't want to leave you on tenderhooks wondering what my Monday Musing was going to be, so... here it is, short and sweet.
First, I went to Tallahassee this past weekend and went out with a bunch of girlfriends on Saturday night. And after the Saturday morning I had, let me just say that this night was so very needed and so very, very soul-fulfilling and affirming. And I have the pictures to remind me so next time I'm feeling a bit less than worthy, I'll pull these pics out and remind myself how lavishly loved I am when I'm more careful in my selection of friends.
Second, I've been curious lately about whether or not this pace-improvement thing is mostly in my mind or not. So I went out to Runkeeper and checked. And I found that back in March, my average pace -- for the three piddly walks I did during the course of the entire month -- was about 17:30 per mile. Saturday before leaving for Tally I walked 9.02 miles around the neighborhood. I wasn't thrilled with my pace but consoled myself with the rememberence that my long runs are all about increasing endurance, not improving pace. And my pace on Saturday? 13:44 min/mile!!!
Y'all have a great Monday!
