Tuesday: Decided to run the same way with Hank again. Finished it in 26:42 this time. Thursday: Ran 6 miles at the state park. The trails were full of hikers (I passed 30 on my run), so I had to act like I was running hard....

Another Few Days of Running
Ok, so, I ran a few different times since I last updated. On Friday and Saturday, I ran a 3 mile loop in my neighborhood. The times were pretty similar: 25:02 and 25:35. Then on Sunday, I ran a 4.5 mile run in the neighborhood in 33:55. Today I met Phillip and ran 5 miles on trails in 39:35.

5 miles on trails
Ran 5 miles at HSP in 37:24. There were collegiate cross country runners on the trails, so I had to run to impress.
