T minus 7

So I woke up Saturday to blue skies but some wind. I know, I shouldn't complain about wind, but I have gotten spoiled here in Sandpoint with our "gusts up to 20mph". Anyway, I thought I will run later today after the temps warm up some. Then I did some errands and while out bought a puzzle. Then, Syd broke out the puzzle and well, I started working on it. It got later in the afternoon and I thought I really should go run - I am running out of days. More time passed, and yes, I thought the same thing. Finally, I got myself up and went to get ready. Then I had to figure out my route, what a dilemma? I opted to drive somewhere so that I could run into the wind at the beginning. My initial idea was to go 4 or 5 miles. So after 2 miles into the wind, I got to turn. I thought well, I will go 5 more minutes and then turn around and that should give me about 5. Running along, I decided "oh I should just go all the way up this road which then required me to go on another road, and another, and one more to get back to my car. When I reached where the car was parked, I decided to go just a bit further cause I wanted to make sure I got at least 6 miles, you know after adding all those roads :)

Now that you are tired of reading this I will tell you the end result. 7 miles! Yay, I was quite pleased with myself, partly because I was by myself and because I kept really close to 10 minute miles!! Okay sorry that was long and drawn out, I think I am trying to be eloquent like everyone else ;) I am excited to see everyone.
