This is the start of a beautiful friendship

I went out on a limb and started to search for a running partner via the web. I thought it would be a great way to push me as long as I found someone with abilities that surpassed my own. Believe it or not, im not great at running, biking or swimming, but thats why Im so interested in the sport. Its not only very competitive against others, but its a huge challenge for self.

Today was a challenge. I met up with my new training partner and its pretty much the first time I've ever run with someone. We went up to Bobo Links trail which is in East Boulder and we got into the muddy cattle field trails of the flats.

5.1 miles in 41:35
paced about 7:48 but it felt like 6:40!! My lungs are my limiting factor still but it does seem to be getting better. It was great to get out and enjoy the warm 50* weather and have a run in shorts/Tshirt in March. This is the start of a beautiful friendship. The Colorado dream is always so sunny and colorful!!
