October 9

Had an awesome run in the morning – I have been running outside instead of on the treadmill, and I think it’s helping me take better control of my effort. I had fun and I finished feeling like I could have gone further. And, incidentally, my pace was faster than it has been on the treadmill. So I think I’m onto something. At least I hope so. I also got some stuff for Halloween – my costume arrived as well as the headband I’m planning to wear for my Halloween 5k in a couple weeks. My costume is awesome. I’m psyched. More on that later. Pretty good day.
