LSD in between Thunderstorms!

Saturday at Salem Lake!
Serious thunderstorms last night, but it appeared we would have a window of opportunity!
Headed out the door--rain starts.
Get to the lake--rain stops!
Got in a great 13 mile run!  Suzanne was there, Nestor and Mauricio too.   No rain during the run!
Ran warm up with Suzanne, and then she "took off" to complete her speedy 8 miles.
Ran about 5 with Nestor-then, he "took off".  Was able to get in another mile with him at the half-way point! 
Met a nice young lady-Hillary--out there and ran a couple with her.  Turns out she is also training for the MCM--her first marathon.  She was doing 17 today!  I was completely happy to be doing 13!
The trail was in terrific shape.   Since the work they did out there, no more mud or water holes, even after the serious rain we've had the last two nights!
After the run, I rewarded myself with a pedicure.  Ohhhhh--how good it felt!
