“Have a dream, make a plan, go for it. You’ll get there, I promise.” Zoe Koplowitz

Last night we had a wedgie run. I think I can safely say that the two of us weren’t looking forward to it. It has been a rough few weeks here weather-wise (going from -24 to +10) and in my house alone, we’re going on week four of being sick (GROSS.)

At any rate, we decided we would keep it to a 5km run (or 30’ish minutes) which interestingly enough was recommended for the latter part of training anyway. [Side note:  I have always under the impression that I had to be hitting double digits at least twice a week, in order to make my long runs safe. This is not the case.] YAHOO!

As it turns out, our run was awesome. We had a great pace and got faster and faster throughout and finished strong. I love running the eau claire area because there’s always interesting stuff going on and people to see. We took our standard picture at the end, but I accidentally took this one. When I went to load them this morning, I saw it, laughed and thought I would pass the laugh along. [you’re welcome.]

Hope everyone is happy and healthy out there!

Here are yesterdays stats:

• Distance: 5.02 km
