Work and play

I used to think it was kind of silly to go for a run during your lunch break. Time is limited and you'll get sweaty and hungry afterward. Today I gave it a shot  any way, only because we have a shower in the Ladies Room. Well, it wasn't exactly during my lunch break; it was around 10 a.m. I met my pal Liz here at work and we took off for about a 5 mile run. She was about two or three steps ahead of me the whole time. After all, she did qualify for and run Boston one year.  When we reached the turnaround point, she kept going while I turned around. It was hot but breezy, traffic was light and the bridges gave my thighs a good workout. I was tempted to stop and walk on the way back, but I knew Liz was trying to catch me, so I did intervals instead. What a wonderful workout. I can't think of a better way to start the work day.
