At this pace I could have my sub 2 hour half marathon! Wow!!!! I'm not even training for a sub 2 right now! I guess I am just getting faster without even trying. My focus is endurance and mileage! We will see what happens at my next Half Marathon in March!
It was pretty cool to run on the wide open roads that I used to only drive on. I even had to get out of the way of my old neighbor driving his big ole tractor down the road. I managed to snap a couple of pictures with my iPhone (thanks to my sister for giving me a cool arm band to carry the phone).
This is what I got to look at for 12 miles!
Today I am grateful for:
A good run!
Fun on the farm with the fam!
Phone service on the farm! I remember when I was in college and a trip home meant I was going to be completely out of touch with the world as long as I was there!
Glad you had a good run. GREAT TIMES!! I love the pics. It's beautiful there!
ReplyDeleteExcellent run, Amanda!
ReplyDeleteAwesome run! Great pace.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are enjoying the visit home!
Very cool pics and great run! I was thinking about you today when I was running in the sun and wondering if your mom was driving next to you on a snowy road. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to see you when you get back!
Love the pics... always fun to see friends' running paths. :-) Great 12-miler!
ReplyDeleteYour mention of cows reminded me of roads I used to run in northwestern VA.
ReplyDeleteExcellent run. I will now expect a sub 2:00 in March!
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics! Great job on the run - super fast!
ReplyDeleteGreat run! I can relate to the passing tractor thing... I'm always on the lookout for farmers gawking at their cows and crops and not watching the road!!! I take it you talked your mom out of driving along behind you??? Too funny!
ReplyDeleteawesome job! i'm jealous i haven't gotten in a good outdoor long run forever...3 feet of snow is killing me.
ReplyDeleteMay I be the first to say "I told you so!!" Hello speedy legs. Way to work it out and gain some major confidence a month out. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great pace and a great run! Having the road pretty much to yourself for a run is great! I love those kinds of runs!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the amazing pace!
ReplyDeleteYour pics give off such an air of calm :)
Sounds like your little buddy is having lots of fun also.
What an awesome pace! I hope to be there one day. :) Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteFantastic job! You'll blow that half away come March!
ReplyDeleteKind of disappointed your Mom wasn't driving next to you ;) Congrats on a speedy and long run, I think a sub 2 half is n your near future for sure!
ReplyDeleteGREAT job!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the miles!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Those were great times!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the sub 2. I want to do a sub 2 hour half and I have one coming up but I am not prepared for it yet. My best was 2:00:55.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures - always helps to run with a nice view!
