Run #2: A Bigger challenge

Well, went on Run #2 today at 5:30AM!
Skipped the unlit bike trail for the comfort of the street lights. That made it great for seeing the much steeper hills we were tackling on this session. I made it through (only walking on one run session) but it was tough... but the running times seemed easier than the first time even though the terrain was more difficult.
It was, however, a little strange to realize that we had run from the beginning of the bike trail to just past my parents house... I mean, I always thought that was a long way to go on foot... and it made me see one of my goals in the following year. I want to run the VA Ten miler and run past my parents house both ways! While this will be a difficult goal to achieve I know that if we continue this pace all throughout the year we will be able to meet this goal! I have a lot more soreness this time, and learned an important lesson, don't eat a banana and then run straight away!
