So my usual running buddies all decided to be out of town, which meant a lack of ¨motivation¨ on my part to go out and get my run in. But after I finished packing for my trip to Europe this afternoon, I decided to at least stretch my legs for a couple of miles before I´d be stuck on a plane until tomorrow. It would also be my last run before Sunday´s Connemarathon 39.3 mile ultra on the West coast of Ireland.

I figured I´d just go out for a short UAH loop and call it a day. However, as I was waiting for my old Garmin FR305 (I had already packed up my 310) to get a satellite signal, I remembered the 5 mile Endomondo challenge Dan Brooks had put out there for our Dixie200 relay team. I figured I´d at least give it a shot and put up a decent time before ¨really¨ going for it. As it turned out, I did manage an okay time without truly challenging James Duncan´s current best. You better watch out, James, I´m gunnin´ for ya;-) Now I can relax and rest until my next adventure on Sunday.
