Total Distance
9.50

Ran with Wyatt- MR was a good waterboy.  It was wicked warm by 7:30 am when we started out.  I was ready to quit at mile 2, but felt better after getting the first 4 out of the way.  We went slow and took a few walking water breaks.  Total mileage was over 10, but only 9.5 for running.

There is a huge swamp of cypress trees that we run by (the alligator swamp), which is now filled with water lillies.  It's beautiful, but what I thought was really neat was how the little water pond in the ditch has water lillies in it too.  So that's my treasure for the day.  That and the 2 shotgun shell casings we found.

awww shoooooot! :)

Sometimes the best parts of a run are the treasures we have along the way. Glad you got out, hope there weren't many hurt feelings :)

Way to get out and run, and a nice picture too. You are very observant during your runs. I'm trying to be more like you in that respect. Maybe one of these days I'll be willing to slow down and take a picture of something.

QP, smelling the roses - great, 2 casings, maybe why you see those dead possums? Nice run, walking breaks count.

Stay Kool, B of bS Rools out

Hot mornings are so hard, especially 10 miles on a hot morning. Wow!

Nice picture, but watch out for those alligators...and stray bullets :)
