Today's mileage was straight out of an Indiana Jones movie.  "Go around, don't go between!  You said go between, not around!"  lol  Asked the hubby last night how far he wanted to go.  I heard, "8 miles".  About six miles into it this morning, he was saying "I can't believe you wanted to go 8 miles."  I said, "you said you wanted to go this far!"  His response, "I said NO MORE than 8 miles!" Guess I missed the no more part :)

It really was fine, though.  Felt good, weather was GREAT this morning, and averaged a 9 min/mile pace.  Plus, the more miles you rack up, the more calories you burn, right? ;)  Still counting the calories and doing good.  We have a neighborhood crawfish boil tonight, so I'm trying to rack up as many calories as I can today!!

My best friend ran the SL marathon this morning, her first ever.  So proud of her.  Can't wait to hear how it was for her :)
