Thanks guys ; )

I was running with a re-connected friend ( after 7years of not seeing her), so I know I was running the right pace because we were able to chat a bit. I was worried about using it as a "race" so I took it easy.

The poor girl tho. She is using running as a weight loss tool (as I was/am), so I encouraged her (boot camp style) to sprint the last 150m. She kept up and did a bang up job, crossed the finish line, and promptly PUKED!!! Lol!! I thought she'd be mad at me. But she just laughed and asked me to do more runs with her!! Lol

My time wasn't great, but I wasnt working on that, and I broke so many other self- barriers, that I'm estatic about the run all together!
