Morning run No. 2

Beth spoke this morning about Chi Running and what we can learn from each long run. Here is what I learned from our run this morning.

• Emer is actually a morning person. Hasn't she been keeping that a secret.
• I am not a morning person, but 10 years ago I wasn't a runner, so there is hope.
• The neighborhood rabbits have their 5am morning meeting on Upland Road.
• The neightborhood racoons have their meeting on Beacon Street.
• You can cover 3 cities on a 9 mile run, Newton, Watertown, Waltham.
• Woerd Ave is a great place to launch your kayak.
• Running sideways up a hill really helps (wait, I learned that last week)
• Running 9 miles is hard.
• Running 9 miles at 5am is really hard.
• Running 9 miles with Emer and Beth is always a pleasure.
• We need Isabelle on our long runs. Beth and I can't talk beyond mile 8.
