1100 Miles in 2011 - Run 13

Everynow and then in relationships you will have miscommunications.  Thursday evening was one those times when I thought I had indicated the desire to go on a short run to recover from back injuries, deal with alergies and of course ease back into running as I have not run since my last post.  Unfortunately, though she heard me (I think), Cate's idea of a short run was still 6.5 miles, about 3 miles further than I wanted to run.  I have to add a good dose of idiocy to blame on top of miscommunication as I knew as we ran further out, the further back we would have to run and the further past my desired distance we would go.  Did I speak up or turn around?  Of course not.  Needless to say we probably walked at least a mile of this run on the way back, but I'm so far behind I'm going to claim it all.

It might seem at this point that my goal is out of reach, but I'm not quite ready to give up yet.  Hopefully we have a great spring for running and I can start putting those miles and winter months behind me.
