A fun but hard run with Janet this morning up the Palisades hill to Shea, to Saguaro then home!  8:45 pace, enjoyed paying attention to my form after Monday's lesson and my run felt better than it has in a long time.  Can't wait to share with running group today and to try it again without the hills :)

4 miles with running group, mostly with Katherine!  Isbelle was enjoying her new form and finished at 5!

4 miles to the fountain and around a few times to get the scoop on the relay today!  The lap is short so my girls will be running around it 30 times, yikes!  Should be fun though with a DJ playing music and lots of people out and about.  8:18 pace this morning, 67 degres - 8:18 pace!

Ran the Relay for Life course and around the fountain six miles with two of my girls.  Poor Belle had to go home due to feeling faint, glad she caught herself this time...
