Greensboro, NC 6:15am

Pace: 8:00

I was going to run when I got in on Monday, but my plane was delayed in Detroit. I was going to run yesterday morning, but I lost my iPod and spent so much time looking for it that it was too late to run (sort of). In other words, I am one pathetic loser.

But, I found my iPod and went for a run today. I went on a greenbelt path, but I turned the wrong way and ended up on some city streets through an industrial area with a lot of big tanks and a chemical smell in the air. The weather was cool but humid, so I was soaked by the time I finished.

I ran on a great trail. It's called the Bicentenial trail. It is a greenbelt that feels like a state park. It ended up along a lake with mist coming off of the water. Very hilly but satisfying.

Same route as yesterday, just a little shorter and a little slower.

Boise, ID 11:30am

Pace: 7:42

Had a rough night. My flight was late, so I didn't get to be until 1:30am, then I had to get up and drive my daughter to Nampa at 4am (we survived). So I went home and slept for a while longer and went running after 11. It was still raining when I left, but it stopped somewhere along the way.

I took the route down Joplin that I have been taking on Saturdays, but I ran it in reverse.
