took a friend running on the Monon yesterday. she's just started running and has never really done it anywhere but the treadmill. it was fun to introduce her to the "great outdoors!" ha.

had an easy run, made easier thanks to my beautiful new shoes. i was exhausted today, but i wanted to run just for the sake of wearing them again. good shoes really are a gift from God.

signing up for a 5K at the end of the month and i've invited my 11 year old cousin to join. she is very excited! we will have a good time....

next run: Thursday, group track training.
