ACorn,

Hi.

Nice miles this week. You are doing very well with the miles.

I posted Tuesday...but you added to that post regarding your AM tempo run. Cannot tell you how many times I have been there. Running and having people in their cars looking to the left (many times accelerating forward while still looking to the left). How I deal with it...sometimes chance it. Most times, I go in back of the car or line of cars. You run so fast, you cannot probably appreciate what I can - the look of fear on the face of the driver when I am in front of the car and they have to slam on the brakes. I am laughing as I am typing this thinking back to some of those runs; the driver with the open mouth, the bobbing head from slamming on the brakes, the shocked look (gosh, what is this?, someone is running in front of my car. How did I not see him?).
