5:30am the phone rings

I slap my phone because I think it's my alarm to wake up, but mentally I know it's Saturday, so of course I don't look at it.
Seconds later I hear a voice. I went to grab my phone and Jimmy said he heard something too.
I was sooooo tired!
So I retrieve the last phone calls and it's my friend Emily. Missed call. CRAP!
It hits me that being this early one SATURDAY morning we have TRAINING!!!
I called her back and she said "Good Morning"

First thought "I can't let her down"

I jump out of bad (Oh, how comfy I was!) raced to put on my running clothes, tennis and ran out the door. Drove faster than I should have been going, but I got there right before my group left!!!
It was so cold! But I knew that if I was going to wear a jacket, I'd be shredding it off of me by the 2nd mile! I sucked it up.
I immediately saw Emily and some of our Fav. groupies. We took off.
We ran for about 3/4 of a mile when we started going down this BIG (when I say BIG, I mean BBIIGG!) HILL!... The thoughts of running back up it on our last mile, I tried to block from my thoughts! Eieiei!
We hit mile 1.
Then we made a pit stop for water at mile 2.
At mile 2.75 (Thanks to Em for having a watch) I turned to go back.
So total I did aprox 5 miles, subtracted from walking back up the HILL!

But as for Emily.... SEVEN, I repeat SEVEN miles! You go girl!!! I am so proud of you!

Cheers to the best BFF in the world! Emily.
