Lakeland Hills. May have been 9-10+ miles. Met up with the ladies group in Lakeland Hills this time. We met at Starbucks at 8 a.m. and went from there. We ran R on the road where the Rock Pizza is and went down a new area I have never been. We made a loop back there and then up and down a hill then past the Shopping plazza and straight across. Turned a left where the park is and went on some other streets. From there I am not sure where we went but it was nice. There were about 7 of us running. 2 dogs were running as well with our group. We ran about 5 miles and then I kept running when everyone else stopped. They said we are at 5+ miles when my gps said 4+ miles. i am have forgot to push the button when we stopped to tie a shoe. I went according to my garmin though and figured even if my watch was off I would run some extra if it was. I would rather run more than not enough. I ran on the Lake Tapps Rd from the Rock Pizza to the Texaco and back. On the way back I ran on some neighborhood streets. Then I ran L at the rock pizza and up the same Rd we went on in the beginning but just about .5 miles then turned around. Then I was back at the shopping plaza. No major problems, but my L upper hip bothers me some and my calus on my L foot. It was great to have partially sunny weather!

ARSHS. Early a.m. It was freezing this morning! I had to scrape the frost off my car windows. I wore gloves, short sleeve, long sleeve, and a light jacket. I wore it the whole time too. The track was frosty and glistened in the light. It took about 1 mile to really start to warm up some. It was hard the first 2 laps. I did my usual route. R ankle bothering me at start but went away as I kept running. There was the goal post in the middle of the track on the far side that I had to go around. Overall, felt good.

Lakeland Hills. Met at Starbucks area at 5:30 a.m. First time meeting with running group on a week day. So great to have some ladies who go running in the morning before work. There were 5 of us. Angela, Niki, Janet, Michelle, and I. We did a route that I am not sure how to say. But we ran throughout the neighborhood near the elementary school. We ran up 2 hills and in and out through the homes. It was a nice run. It helped to have others to run with when doing my semi long run for the week. I felt good, except kinda had to use the restroom. What a great way to start my birthday with a nice run in the morning and have it out of the way. I feel great now as I am eating my cheese bagel and grapes:)

Lakeland Hills. Starbucks at 5:30 a.m. It was a lot warmer than Wed. run. We all got fairly hot afterwards. I ended up with my tank top. Felt okay today but semi tired from staying up late the night before with my friend Claudia for my bday. Hard to wake up at 5 a.m. I rode with Angela up there. Ladies there: Angela, Janet, Lindsey, Niki, and Mishael. We did same route again which included 2 hills but the hills didn't seem as bad this time. It was a little harder for Niki this time though. Good run and good company.
