asinine!

So L previously mentioned about me and her going on Kelly drive and about how I am into running. Now, I sort of dislike when people talk about working out but since she started it I'll enlighten you on my run the other day. I was dreading this run for about 3 days because I knew it was time for my long run. It needed to be 7 miles in order to be ready for a 1o mile run on march 7. It just so happened that there were winds up to 60 mph this day though. However, I went for it cause Ken-bo, the insane running expert/dad said that I had to be tough.
The wind was sort of similar to this...
and I was sort of similar to this..
Overall, I did survive the run, I'd say it was probably 8 miles though. I mean if you consider the running in place as the wind and I were battling! Only got a few welts from the leaves slapping me in the face.. and I avoided getting to much in my eyes. It also allowed me to see how comical/friendly people can be in philadelphia. Instead of the normal run by and act like you don't see one another, I had people not only smiling but laughing. Apparently they found it ridiculous to be running in the wind as well. It was sort of nice for once. Can't say I'd recommend it, or ever plan to do it again! Thanks Ken-bo, I wasn't able to walk for a few days after!!
