West LA Running Club - Week 3!

Asia had a 3.8 mile run plotted for us, but we ended up getting lost at Montana and San Vicente...as a result, we ended up running 4.8! It was a good run, though a bit noisy on the busy streets (San Vicente, Wilshire, Barrington), but all-in-all, it was a really nice run. I'm sure I'm going to feel it tomorrow, most likely for two reasons: 1) we ran at least a mile longer than I usually run and 2) we ran for an extra 8-10 minutes than I usually do, too.

That said, we finished the course in about 43:30 so that was good. (Also, Dave did really well - he was concerned he wasn't going to be able to go much longer than 28-30 minutes, but he powered through to the end.) In fact, I ended up finishing about 20 seconds behind both Asia and Dave.

Anyway, it looks like the running club might be a fixture here on the west side!

Dave's up for the next run on Thursday - can't wait to see what he plots out for us there!

I resent the inference that I am a "3 miles and done" kind of guy...
