Erin's first 8 miler!

Yesterday, I ran with Erin for her first 8 mile run. Not only was it a one mile personal best for distance. It was her longest run outside, in the snow. The snow makes for bad footing, and working alot harder to go the same speed or distance.

Normally I go off on my own when we go run, but yesterday I felt more in the mood to just run WITH Erin! The decision to run with her for the full 8 miles was a good one. It was a new experience for us. Running together mile after mile, talking, venting, everything. It was great!

It's funny how small Minot can start to seem while on the run. It's only 4 miles from Oak park to Rosevelt park. A person could run about anywhere in town in less than an hour. If only humanity made it more acceptable to be a sweaty mess in public! Perhaps then this obesity thing would die down! I doubt it....
