Labor Day Run!

I wasn't able to run the 19 miles with the rest of the girls.  Jake had an archery deer tag and we were trying to catch a deer for him.  

Bryant and I did our 19 mile run that Monday, since it was Labor Day and we both had the day off.  We were going to get up really early, but of course sleep sounded so much better then beating the heat.  We didn't start our run until 6 AM, it was so DARK.  There were also a lot of people camping/hunting out at the Sands area, so I made Bryant run with me until it got light.  I was afraid one of them would get me I guess.  The coyotes were yapping too, I hate those things!  

 There is the little crescent moon... I really needed Becka's head lamp for this run, luckily Bryant stayed back with me until it got light.  Bryant was so nice to stay back with me.  At one point I turned to him and said, "man I wish this pace felt as comfortable to me as it does to you!"  One day maybe it will, ok so probably not, but I can always hope!

 I LOVE seeing the sun rise!  So beautiful!

 After we were done running the Sands road I let Bryant take off.  It was 8 miles down and I knew that I was holding him back so I said go for it.  We decided to run the Best Friends loop with this run.  

Best Friends loop seemed like it was at least 20 miles long!  It's like 5... It lasted FOREVER!  Then I still had to run into town after that.  So I started entertaining myself, I think I even sent a few selfies to my fellow runners. 

I ran it a little slower then I wanted to, but I did it!  It was done!  Wahoo!!!
