I somehow pushed out 4mi today. And it was a two-parter. I promised my sister that I'd run with her today. She's was sick earlier this week (she thinks it might have been the protein bar I gave her to try but that's a whole other story) and so we were going to take it easy.
After lunch with our parents, we were dropped off at my house. The plan was that I'd run with her back to her house and then make my way back. That would be a solid 4mi (1 extra mile than scheduled)
But it turned out it was she who was running me to her place. I think she was able to quell her fears that she had lost fitness in her few days off. She was the strong one today. Me, on the other hand, was struggling. Near the end, she opened up a good gap between us, about 15 sidewalk lengths. She fed me some toast, then some Gatorade.
I was replenished enough to make the journey home. So happy to see my front door.
