Met my neighbor outside at 4:45 for some speedwork. When we were discussing the time to meet, I suggested 5, and she said that was too late for her. I've never had anyone tell me that!
I thought she'd balk at me if I said 4:30, but I was thrilled when she wanted to go earlier. I was excited and kept waking up during the night, worried that I was going to sleep in and miss our run.
We averaged an 8:46 pace. I really enjoyed the run and the company. I think we're just going to have a standing 4:45 run on Wednesdays. I hate speedwork and it will give me something to look forward to.
