I wish it was safe enough for me to run to Stillwell Woods and back from my house. That would be such a great combo workout.The Emerging Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09326865074297618379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515821469608970128.post-49681795585953976222014-03-03T19:30:11.487-05:002014-03-03T19:30:11.487-05:00If I don't cross any major roads I will wind u...If I don't cross any major roads I will wind up running 1,000 loops of my flat, boring neighborhood streets. Now that I think about it, I cross Peninsula Boulevard, Hempstead Turnpike, Old Country Road, Jericho Turnpike, Hillside Avenue, Shelter Rock Road, and Northern Boulevard. I cross with the light and always make eye contact with the drivers so I feel safe, except Shelter Rock. Not all of us have an indoor track in our dens, you know.She Is Out Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06497517619863017396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515821469608970128.post-66915398101957062102014-03-03T19:25:51.185-05:002014-03-03T19:25:51.185-05:00Ideally, I would like to finish 3:30ish (-ish mean...Ideally, I would like to finish 3:30ish (-ish meaning -sub). However, after my race this past Saturday, I'm not so sure that's realistic. I really am going to try that 15k at the end of the month to get a better idea of my fitness. I also need to run hills for the remainder of my long runs. I also need to figure out how to hide that jetpack under my shirt. It'll be hard with the tightened security.She Is Out Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06497517619863017396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515821469608970128.post-49000349329113232102014-03-03T19:21:49.427-05:002014-03-03T19:21:49.427-05:00I know.

Running with traffic behind you on Shelter Rock Rd. must have been a pulse raising experience. I admire your willingness to take on these long runs on public roads. I won't even cross Jericho Turnpike on a run.
