I did run one morning in Charlotte. This was a beautiful old church along the way. It amazed me that the altitude seemed to be a factor. I felt faster and indeed was. Why was the altitude not a factor in Anchorage I wonder. This morning I headed out on one of my favorite running trails. I intended to run 5 miles, but felt pretty good at 2.5, so I didn't turn around. I turned around at 3 miles, and then started feeling really crappy at about 4. I ran 5 miles and walked the last one in.
I haven't run more than 3 miles at a time since the half marathon in June! I was so accustomed to running 10 miles that it amazed me this morning to be absolutely beat after 4 miles. If I am going to run I better start doing it a little more!
Hope everyone in Texas is safe.

Good job on getting out there!
Nice job!! What a pretty picture!
Excellent! Beautiful pic, and that's still a sixer, even if you walked the last one.

Five is good!! Good job getting out there and getting it done. :)
Great blog Mary. Thanks for sending it to me. Sorry it took so long to respond.
I hope all is well and I look forward to seeing you soon...
Funny how easy it is to fall into a training rut. Your body is pretty used to 3-miles now I guess. You're going to have to break yourself out of that.
