June 7th, Thursday

Wow, I feel like a marked man!  Today I had a car run a red light and I ended up almost on the guys hood before he realized I was there!  It was in a neighborhood tucked away by my school.  What really got me upset is that our XC runners run by this intersection (Pacific Highlands Ranch Pkwy & Blue Dawn Tr.) VERY often!  He stopped and I gave him a piece of my mind!  Maybe a few pieces!  Pedestrians, please be aware that we have a lot of distracted drivers out there for many reasons, so keep your head on a swivel! Twice in 3 days, I hope that takes care of my quota for a few months at the very least!

Back to the running!  6.35 miles in 58 minutes & 15 seconds (that includes about a minute of explaining driving responsibilities to a certain young man!) 9:11 pace.  Other than feeling a little shaken up, doing pretty well!

I have some grades to finish up so I will stop a little short today.  Took yesterday off for our farewell luncheon for Madelyn Trainor, an amazing Math teacher who is retiring from Cathedral.  She will be missed but will now be enjoying the golf course!

I found a great quote to back up just how important all of you are in this quest I am on:

"Success, in business as well as life, is directly dependent on the quality of people you surround yourself with"  ~ Phil Hickey

Total Miles:  913. 95  Pace Runner:  874.07   +  39.88 miles

Love you Mom & Pops!  <3
