Five, That's Five TNTers

One TNT runner, two TNT runners, three TNT runners, four TNT runners, five TNT runners-five TNT runners at Campbell Park today, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! One spring TNT buddy run group! Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah! (Insert traditional trademark thunder and lightening here.) Go Team!

Come on, who doesn't love The Count (full name Count von Count)?

I originally planned to run four miles today but I'm still sick from the cold I caught this weekend and decided to cut it short to three miles, on a cold windy cloudy rainy day. Stupid? Perhaps, but exercising usually perks me up and helps chase my colds away. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I was a little weaker than normal but the run went well. Besides, it stopped raining by the time I went out.

I ran into Diana at my three mile turnaround (14 minutes) and ran the rest of the way in with her. Diana ran 12 miles this weekend and was a bit fatigued and was running a 4:2 (run four minutes walk two minutes). Being a little weak myself I was glad to join her. Having someone to talk to also helps the time fly by. That's when we saw Jesie and Jason and a couple of their friends, Troy and Corina, and a buddy run team. A lot of TNTers for a cold cloudy evening in a relatively empty park. Campbell Park is never empty!

I have to say that running with Diana is a pleasure. She talks about anything and everything and has time to answer her iPhone in the middle of a run! I have proof. She's so funny. I plan to meet up with her and Robin, and a few others, to run eight miles this Saturday. I should stop rainning by then.

Tomorrow: TNT mentor/captain meeting and sign up. Summer season here I come!
