Today was the first of (3) 20 mile runs that I will complete as part of my marathon training. I met a Team in Training friend at Shaker Lakes. We completed the first 11 miles running through some rain showers (I'm ready for the rain on marathon day, now!) but enjoying the scenery. Cleveland is such an amazing place with so many parks so close to the city. Andrea left to go finish up her run downtown at a 5 mile race(!!!!) and I met my sister Rachel for the next part of the run.
Rachel recently returned from a trip to Antarctica as part of a work-related leadership seminar. It was great hearing all about her trip. (This picture is Rachel in Antarctica - not me on one of my cold winter runs!). Rachel left for home after 6 miles and I finished up the last 3 miles on my own, which is a good thing since she is a fast runner and I was getting tired! It was a good run and now I only have 2 more 20 mile runs to complete before marathon day.
