Running, running

I went running with wL after work today and it was my best time ever - 5K in 28:16! I shaved another half minute off my time, but it didn't feel like it while I was running. It felt more laboured because I ran the last 3K with a stitch, and trailed farther behind wL then I ever have for a longer period of time...we started off running at a quicker pace then usual, and I was hungry to boot since we didn't head out until 6:30 so that might have contributed to the cramps too. Ah well.

He's leaving for a two-week trip Saturday so I don't know what I'm going to do. I lack the motivation to get my ass out the door once I'm home - and like I said before, he's a much better runner than I am so he makes me better in turn. I'll try to keep it up at the gym, at least on weeknights since it's too dark for me to feel safe running out on my own after work. Let's see if I can pick up the pace in the time he's gone...

Meanwhile...No Doubt's Running...one of my favourite songs...


...and perhaps appropriate on some level because I think I might like wL as more than a friend but can't be sure. That's all for now.
