I love Friday evenings. :)
Finished the 7.2km hilly route near my workplace in the fastest time ever. In August last year, I was doing this route in 49mins. Today, I did it in 41mins 57secs.

So much of running is in the mind. I've been doing the 10km on the treadmill and I suspect that the only reason I could keep up the pace today was because I kept telling myself that it was only 7.2km so I might as well go a little faster. I was very tired actually -- the hills did me in, but I kept thinking, "Just a little bit more, just to that junction, and then I'll be almost done" etc. etc., all the way home.
What a great way to start the weekend! :)

That really is a great way to begin your weekend. I've been battling a sore achilles since Memorial Day and haven't been able to do any significant running--I'm envious.
I like your new look!
What a great way to start the weekend, indeed! I haven't run in over a week and I'm feeling so out of it. Must ... get ... out ... tomorrow ...
Thanks for your comments on my blog! I must say you sound pretty much female too. Yah, it's all our little obsessions and the talking about shoes, even running shoes ;)
