Roegner Park. Ran about 8:45 a.m. We ended up deciding not to go down to Portland so I was able to run at Roegner Park. Was a little uneasy because I think I rolled my ankle when I was jumping up and down just being goofy. It has been hurting me for awhile and also slightly sore from chiropractic adjustment. However, slight pain but nothing to keep me from running. Tried to run slower this time but not sure how much slower I actually ran. Always in a hurry to get off for volleyball. Saw lots of runners this morning: nice asian man, 2 ladies running together, a lady running, few people walking, a group of 3 runners, etc..Nice day to be out! Ended up talking to a nice asian lady about 40 yrs old; she was asking me all kinds of questions about my run and we ended up exchanging numbers and would like to run together again at Roegner Park. We might try to shoot for next Sunday. Trying to decide to run there or with the group in Renton. We'll see...

Oh no, you missed the car races?! That's too bad. And you rolled your ankle? That's terrible news! Way to push through that, but I hope it gets better. Was the chiropractor for the ankle or something else? You'll need to tell me more about that. That's awesome you found a new running friend!
