We definitely ran 8 miles, thanks to Ronny biking the route for us. We felt every inch of every mile....not one of us seemed to enjoy the process very much, but it felt good to be done and to now know we can handle Broad Street without fail. There seemed to be a fugitive on the loose in the park as we were joined by helicopters, police, rescue squads and Ron on his bike. Perhaps someone will have more info on the down low when we return on Monday. There was the hope that it was a mad killer who would pop out of the woods and put us out of our misery - I know that's what I was wishing around the third hill. The picture does not show the agony of the run - I'm certain because it was over!
You see! And people scoffed at my comment last week about being abducted in the park. Now I'm REALLY thankful that Wendy held herself back to run with me.
ReplyDeleteWell done women. Some healthy looking girls there.
ReplyDeleteGreat work group! I have not heard the details on any loose criminals in the park... Though it would not be the first. My senior year at the Council Rock Cross Country Invitational, 2 athletes from Glen Mills got to the 2 mile mark of the race and ran away in hopes of escaping. They were found 2 hours later in their Glen Mills singlets, still wearing their racing spikes on the bench outside of the Starbucks in Newtown...
