Okay! The run i was dreading/looking forward to (to see if i could actually do it) is over and i did it! :)

What an absolutely gorgeous day!!  I ran 2, 6 mile loops over to Burly Hill and up Eola.  First loop was with Frank and then dropped him off and rehydrated with coconut water and did the second.  Frankie was pretty well behaved except when he tried to go after this kid on a skate board! I definately had to walk up Eola once the first loop for about .1 miles and about .15 the second time. :( 

All in all a good run, but that hill is the devil himself.

Did I ever tell you you're my hero? You're everything I would like to be. I can fly higher than eagle... but you are the wind beneath my wings.
