Personal:

Just another single 30-year old Argentine girl living the American dream in Washington DC and trying to run faster. Graduated from Southern Utah University in 2003, then moved to DC. I have a full-time job as research economist for an association in the transportation industry and I'm attempting to get my Master's degree in Economics from Johns Hopkins, part-time, while keeping my sanity!

From office on C&O towpath. Felt great and took it easy the 3 miles out; then was chased by these fast college girls and HAD TO speed up a bit... Ran 2 miles back fast and slowed down in last mile. Took 50 minutes altogether.

From office, C&O canal to Key Bridge, on the Mt. Vernon trail, back on Memorial Bridge, on Rock Creek trail, up P St. and back to office. Felt heavy and slow... Shins hurt a little but not bad.

Reverse bridges run after work, over to P street, and checked out a little of the Potomac Heritage trail. Felt pretty goods, shins bothered a little but not too bad. Took 55 minutes.

6 miles on C&O towpath after work - shins hurt quite a bit. did 5 miles easy and tried to run hard one mile... sad to know the hardest I can run a mile is 7:50, though I'm hopeful that the mile markers on the canal are a bit off... About 50 minute workout altogether.
