52:17 minutes (9:03, 9:02, 8:52, 8:35, 8:33, 8:08) Hubby had an early morning assignment, so I slept in and ran this afternoon. Heavenly! The weather was so nice and warm. I ran in tights and a short sleeve shirt...amazing! I was planning on doing my 5 mile route, but when I got to my favorite down hill stretch, the road was closed. They were making a HUGE trench for the canal and had a big pipe - there was NO crossing it! So I turned around and started to head back. I saw another runner and flagged him down to ask if the street I was on had construction. It didn't thankfully, so I didn't totally have to completely retrace my steps. I was probably going a lot faster than I should have (not that it is all that fast), but some days it is awesome to open up a can of whoop A..... and let 'er rip! It felt good to open the stride.
