Songs of the 90's

How much fun was the run this morning? BTW, I took role and was missing several faces in the crowd. Maybe they looked at the weather channel...not me. I was there.
Anyway, this morning was nice and chilly. I decided to run with my light jacket. Well, about two miles into the run I realized I would have been fine just to leave it in the car. But then the sprinkles came. It got a little chilly again, but not enough to throw it back on. I was laughing when I came to the third hill by about mile 3. This is because I knew most of this course, and I KNEW there were going to be a few more than 3 hills. I think the coaches just didn't want to crush our spirits before we started. Fear coupled with the thought of rain at 5:45 AM doesn't make for a big crowd.
So I quit wearing my IPOD when I run. I still like to hear music, or as most of you know sing along with my never ending song list in my head. This morning if you were anywhere close to me you probably heard a little 4 non blondes and even a little vanilla ice. there is nothing better than running and singing. I am a bit bruised by the sticks and rocks that people threw to get me to quit. But if you know me...it only got louder. I do take requests, but if you want to hear them you have to run my slow pace.

I thought there might be a write-up about your police escort yesterday! :-Þ

I don't think you have a slow pace. I was never close enough to hear you singing. Sorry I missed it.

Oh, was that you who had the police escort? That's not the best way to get in your speed work.
