running long again...

it was my first long run in a while...met the group at 7am for 7 miles on the trail sunday morning...not too many folks but was happy to have someone to run with...roger from the group and i ran about the same so we decided to stick together...did the I-35 loop starting at the rock near mopac...felt good...had a nice time chatting with a new training buddy...and generally had a good run...saw amy out there on the trail...always a pleasure...ended up with ~9 minute mile pace for the run...faster than those marathon training long runs...but felt just as comfortable...

home to an entirely local breakfast...scrambled eggs with patty pan squash, onions, tomatoes and basil (all from my CSA) with a slice of home made bread...and spent the rest of the morning reading...took a 20 minute power nap just after 11...then decided it was time to wake up j...we had a friend in town and they had gone out saturday night...i was good and was home by 9 :)

then just a relaxing, kind of lazy sunday...lots of reading...cookbook perusing...cooking...and baking...roasted a chicken with some pesto made with the farm basil, some butternut squash and a cucumber salad...for dinner...and watched Michael clayton...pretty good i thought..and off to bed...good training day and a good weekend...
