Today's the Ice Age 50 race in the Kettle Moraine and Bill volunteered us to help with an aid station. We did this a few year's ago when he learned of it through one of his accounting instructors, Danica. For the past few years we couldn't make it, but this year it worked out. That prevented us from running with the group this morning though as we had to be out near Whitewater by 8am. We brought our stuff with, though, and Bill mapped some trails in the area that we could run after we were done if we wanted.
After standing for a few hours at the aid station, our legs were a bit tired. Then it looked like we were going to have to pay to park where we were going to run so we decided to skip it and do it later.
Took a little nap, then got up and still needed to run. Neither of us really wanted to, though. Earlier I had suggested doing the cemetary run as we could run together on that one and not fight traffic. Bill then agreed and off we set.
Ran it backwards so it was nice to start with the big downhill on 12th street. After we visited with Dad, Bill announced that he didn't want to do the whole run and wanted ice cream. I never turn down ice cream, so we just finished in Mound cemetary and capped off the run in 4 miles.
(then I made him make good on the promise and take me to DQ)!
Ran 4.00 miles in 36:08 (9:02/mile pace). Not a full Saturday run, but a good run nonetheless.
