Lunch time run!

I usually stay in the office for lunch. We don't have a lunch room, our building doesn't have a cafeteria, and the eat-in places around our building are so expensive. I used to scrapbook during lunch hour but lately, I've had so many things to bring to work, I don't want to add a tote (although it's small).

Friday was a beautiful day. It was sunny and about 20 C. I mapped out a 4.25 mile route on Google maps and went for a run. Even with a walking break (note to self: running on a full bladder is pretty uncomfortable), my pace was bang-on with running 5.8 mph on the treadmill. So I was probably running at a more than a 6 mph pace. My quads are a little sore - the wind gusts were about 40 mph so I got another bonus hill workout! LOL.

I'm definitely going to run at lunch again. I was talking to a colleague in another department and she and her coworker (who I have worked with before on working groups) run 3 miles Tues/Thurs at lunch. Unfortunately those are my work-from-home days, otherwise I'd join them. Hmmm, our former summer student (who is filling in for a mat leave) used to run...hmmmm.... ;-)

I think I am going to try to scrap a page, or at least leaf through a magazine or two, with a mudslide ;-) Night night all!
