So, we are on a technology fast and I'm not supposed to be on the computer, but I had to tell you about todays run. Yesterday, Ryan and Sara Hall came over to talk to the group about their running and training. Afterwards, I was talking to Ryan about doing an easy run and he suggested we run together this morning! So, this morning, Ryan and Sara Hall picked up me, Jared, and our friend Brent from our condo and we headed up to Lake Mary (9000 feet) to run. We met up with Josh Cox, along with Meb Keflezghi (2004 silver Olympic Medalist) and Dan Browne (2004 Olympian). We ended up running about 10.5 miles together and it was a great experience. We had some great conversations about life, and I learned alot from both Ryan and Josh about staying positive even when things aren't going well. Its crazy cause a few days ago when I got a picture with him I thought that was a big deal. Today, I'm riding in the car with him just having regular conversations about life and random stuff. It was definently the best experience of the trip! After the run, Ryan and Sara drove us back to our condo. Their dog Kai joined us for the run as well and stayed with us the whole time....that dog is fit!! I've got a picture from today, so I will put it up as soon as possible.
