Three Runs, One Post

This isn't my style, but I'm posting three runs in one post today. It's also not my style to run three times in one day. Seems a bit ridiculous and not very sound when it comes to a time management point of view. However, the schedule today allowed for it and I took advantage.

Time: 64:26
Distance: ~8.6 miles

I ran with Meagan on a medium loop this morning. Her legs were tired and I was content to shuffle since I was awakened too early. She was off to the airport and I was off to drink coffee.

Time: 57:02
Distance: ~7 miles

Before driving to the airport, Tyler gave me a ring about running out at McAlpine. He wanted to take his dog Cerberus out for a few miles. How could I turn down a run with Tyler and Cerberus on Veterans' Day? After a couple store visits to Charlotte Running Company and Inside-Out Sports, we left for the crushed gravel.

I felt better on this run than I did at 6:20 this morning with Meagan. The pace was slow as Cerberus had to be reigned in a couple of times, but it allowed me to stretch out the legs.

Time: 59:09
Distance: 8 miles

I missed the Meetup Group Run from Common Market last week and I won't be around for the next two weeks. It's always a fun excuse to fit in another run, make it a triple and drink a few pints. I showed up early after running a few errands and jogged the course solo prior to everyone showing up. The group started a few minutes late and I was off putting one foot in front of the other again. My pace gradually picked up and I steadily passed several people by the time the run was over. However, I was surprised at how many people finished ahead of me and who must run this as a mini workout.
