What I wanted to note on my contribution today was that with a partner, we made incredible splits, really. Our time flew by and what I noticed is that I hardly realized we were pushing the tempo. We made a 4:03 minute km! I need to keep intentionally getting together with him. Jeremy, for example, is naturally speedy. He use to frustrate me when we were first starting out running because I felt like he was always slightly competitive to keep just a bit ahead. What I have realized is that I am the one who is competitive naturally, he's just freaking faster! It was also great to just do something so cathartic, chat, and enjoy the views on our holiday on foot.Partners = good. :)
I included some pictures for you to see what we saw.

"I am the one who is competitive naturally, he's just freaking faster!" ... loved that.
I'm so competitive that I usually run solo. I get discouraged too easily when I'm with people who are faster than I am and, yet, I don't feel like I've done the best I can if I'm with someone slower. I have had moments, though, when I have been spurred on by a running partner and they are special.
Love your blog!
