New PR

On Tuesday morning when I was running I set a new personal record. I ran a mile in less than 9 minutes. I haven't done that since 5th grade. It was only 10 seconds shy of 9 minutes, but I'll take it! All things were in my favor. The weather was nice, the terrain flat, and I was the only jogger. I love to pass people and with only walkers it helped me feel like I was going fast. It also may have something to do with the fact that Yuma is 138 feet above sea level and Ely was 6435 feet above it. I could actually breathe! I better get myself in gear now that I can breathe again.

Finally!!! An answer as to why I can't run... I'm too far above sea level. That has to be it, right?
