Time: 49:42
Distance: ~6.5 miles
I left on my first trip to visit stores in my territory this morning. I started with a quick visit to Off'n Running in Greensboro and then I was off to the Research Triangle area. I dropped in The Athlete's Foot Raleigh, Fleet Feet Carrboro, TrySports Cary and finally Bull City Running. It was a long day, but a fun and successful one. The objective of the trip was to meet the staff and check out the store.
I purposely went to Bull City Running last because they are a great account for me with inventory of Craft, Karhu, Balega, Fuel Belt and SweatVac. They carry nearly everything I represent and I'll be grateful to continue the already strong relationship between the store and The Genesis Agency.
I fit this run in with George who works at Bull City Running along a green way in the dark. He was planning to put in 30-35 minute, but we were having such a good conversation that we decided to go longer. I'm pleased that today's running didn't interfere with work and I know that training will be possible when on the road. George is an interesting guy as he graduated from Furman, attended the seminary and was ordained at Myers Park Baptist (across the street from Queens), and works part time at Bull City Running and R.E.I. His parents still live in Charlotte and his wife is from Norman, Oklahoma. Small world. I look forward to running with George in the future.

Jordan,
Cool--I made your blog! I found it because I was looking for your results from this morning at Thunder Road on the chance that you ran. Sending good vibes--even though you are done by this point. My wife snuck in under 4 hrs so she was very excited.
