a ninja's future

this morning was heavy. i didn't want to get up, i didn't want to run, but i did and i am better for it. i met my running buddy @ 5am @ meridian and NW expressway. we did 8 miles but is was so humid that i was having trouble breathing on the way back. it was like in the middle of a race when you have to push yourself but we were only running 8min miles.
8 miles ave 7:45, pretty slow. I'm hoping that i will be able to pick up the pace once xcountry season starts.
