6 miles - accidentally!

Today I waited until 10 am and had Mom drive me to Centuria where I got on the Gandy Dancer Trail and ran the other way - toward St. Croix Falls.  Never done that before and thought it was going to be about 4.5 miles.  Absolutely gorgeous trail!  Beautiful!  We have to run that the next time you're home.  Through fields and trees.  And it turned out to be 6.02 miles to the info center in SCF!  But I did it in 64.42 minutes and that's almost a record 6 mile time for me.  And what a morning.  Sunny.  58-60 while I was running.  A little wind but not much.  Just a perfect, gorgeous run all the way around.  I will do that again!  The only downside?  You run right past Kentucky Fried Chicken near the end and I was hungry!

Accidental extra miles are the best kind! I love that sort of run!

I also love KFC and, especially, their coleslaw. So I'm 100% in for this run!

I'm glad your run was so fantastic!
