Long run at the Landing in Renton. We left Portland Sat. night versus Sunday a.m. It just worked better and I was able to get my long run in with a group! We ran along the lake this time. I got to get to know the other store worker for the Balanced Athlete-Kory, we was very nic but could only run 4 miles due to his knee problems  I ran with a pack of about 4 but ended up being just me a Kelly for the longer distance. He runs a slower pace than I do but I enjoyed having the company and didn't want to overdue myself for a long run. We ended up running about 19 miles. It wasn't quite accurate becuase I programed my garmin for 17 and had the add the last bit by stopping it and restarting it. We ran all the way to Belluvue, Braven (sp?) shopping square and back. We walked some and rested when we got the the shopping area. I took some energy block shots by Cliff and drank all my water plus refilled. It was a tough run the last 5 miles. We were both spent, esp. Kelly wanted to walk a lot more and slow the pace down.
