Keeping it simple Thursday!

Double run...
but the first one..
Not as much fun!!

Indian Springs:
 8.01 mi
 01:12 time
09:02 pace

 It was so funny as "Katie" and I were running that first mile at Indian Springs.  We were making the curve into the woods when these 2 familiar faces emerge. They look like they are coming out of a bees nest. They are both swatting and yelping. The shorter guy yells "Hope you brought your bug spray, the bugs are HORRIBLE!" and the other guy about a foot taller looks at us cross eyed  and mouth gaping in agreement non verbally!
It was like a battle scene. "Katie" looked mortified. With out a second to let this vision sift another runner appears from the woods. This woman came out with a full out BUG MASK!! She wasn't messing around!! This scene threw "Katie" into a tail spin and a panic attack. You didn't know whether to laugh or cry. this woman looked like she was going into quarantine or something!
BUG RUN...Couldn't keep proper pace, between my stinking sugar dropping at mile 2 and beating off killer bugs, I was happy to reach the end. Good news: even though the bugs were at a high, the bug spray worked. Only 1 bite from the beasts!

 Independence Oaks: 4.3 mi
  00:39 Time
  08:59 pace
Run #2 of the morning, Ran with Katie at 7"30 then met Sarah at 10am. No BUGS at Independence Oaks!! Just RAIN. Refreshing!! "Sarah" and I had the perfect conditions for our run :Cooler temps, no bugs and a misty rain. Not to mention we didn't get lost one time!! Which is an improvement from last week! We took the "River Loop" all the way, twice!
