Freedom 10K

I'm apologize to my faithful readers, all 1 of you. You know who you are. Because of new internet restrictions at work I can't get online for personal use even on my lunch break, which was when I did a lot of my blogging. So here I am almost a week later talking about my run on the 4th. I decided to do the Freedom 10k this year. I have done it once before and the thing I hated before was the same thing I hated this time. The uphill climb at the end. Who in their right mind ends a 6 mile run with an uphill? How rude. I really had only run 6 miles twice before the race, so my finish at 1:06 wasn't that disappointing. That is exactly 11 min miles. It was fun though to run with a girl from work who I really haven't been able to spend much time with in the past. It was fun talking to her a little bit and I really enjoyed having company. Running races with a friend is always a lot more fun than running alone. She had only run 3 milers before the race, and I was actually the one holding her back. She left me at the end with about .2 miles to go. She was a great running partner.
