I only got half

I tried. I really did. But when my pace went from 7:30s to 8 to 9:30s it was all over. I really wanted to get 10 miles in this morning, but all i could drag out of my oxygen-deprived lungs was 5 miles. Mexico City is at right around 6,000 feet. I need more red blood cells.

I'll try again tomorrow, maybe.
Definitely on Friday morning, and hopefully I'll have a better performance.

Weather is just absolutely perfect. I want a good run!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I bet you were tired from your early morning trek to the queso well! ;)

yes, 3 miles up hill each way, through cactus with only sandals on.
5 gallons of queso on each shoulder... should be enough through tomorrow, i hope.
our donkey got stolen, so it was especially painful.
ha!
