Pat Comstock!

I had a pleasant surprise this morning in that Pat Comstock is in town too so I had company today and maybe the next two days! I guess it wasn't really a surprise. He texted me on Saturday and told me he was here, and I arranged the run last night.

We went at 6:45, so I got to sleep in. However I didn't stretch yesterday after riding in the car and the humidity here is much worse than at home at 5am... so the run was pretty tough. We were excited to see each other and the pace was faster than I normally start. Granted it still wasn't fast--7:08, 6:43, 6:30-- but I wasn't able to go much faster and it was wearing on me. I don't know why.

He only wanted to run 8 but I mentioned the 11 mile loop so he was down with it. I regretted that.
