running with my sister

Monday, July 09, 2012

My sister is also a runner. Not to the same extent as me. However, while visiting her I have been on a couple of runs. Today we had planned what my B-i-L called a 8-9 mile run. Well doable ... so we started out - he also said we would have the wind behind us .. didn't happen - - weather: overcast and then it started to rain. We had a nice run ... but rather than a 8-9 mile run we ended up running 13.6 miles.... no, no wrong turns or other route errors because we did a point to point on a rail trail.

I feel a little stiff now.

    It's great when we can make it a family affair, isn't it?

I finally got out to San Diego in 2009 and rented bikes with one of my sisters and had an awesome time riding out on the Silver Strand on Coronado Island.

I've been working on getting out with my other sisters on bikes...haven't succeeded yet. Course it doesn't help when they are in Anchorage, San Diego and Michigan and I'm in NY...! :-)

    Awesome that you had somebody to run with and that you were able to spend that time with your family!

    I hope that you enjoyed the run and didn't overdue it by going to far. Was just commenting with another Sparkfriend about going to far because of getting lost--not fun or good for the legs:) At least it rained somewhere:)
