my wife and i started out to run to the river and back, but the strong southerly headwind dissuaded us from continuing on any further south than the edge of town. instead of a down and back, we turned our jaunt into an afternoon 5K.
my wife kept saying we were running fast, but i kept convincing her that we weren't pushing it that hard. she wanted to walk (and did a couple of times), but i kept urging her on.
when we circled back around to the north side of town and neared home, i smiled and said, "we're going to finish close to your time in haviland," referring to her best 5K time ever. she responded as i expected. "i told you we were going fast."
i laughed and we finished in 34'42" with 3/100th extra.
