Great run with a huge crew in Riverton. Somehow they inspired me enough to get out there and started by 7:30. Outside of race weeks that is a rare event for me for a Saturday. I am looking forward to doing more in the future. We ran the Riverton Half course, regrouped in the parking lot, then went out for another 8. Matt pushed the pace at the end of the Half so we ended up averaging around 6:30 with the last mile at about 5:25. Then to finish off the run Jake coerced me to run an extra mile at about 5:12. Going into the run I was quite worried about how my hip would hold up considering that it has started to feel achy again. Fortunately I think it held up ok and hopefully the 30 mins of PT afterwards at the gym will help. I have to say the scenery and river trail in Riverton, amongst the many mansions, are very nice. And if you like franchise restaurants I think they are all represented within a square mile.
