9:06/8:40/8:54/8:46/8:46--It was a pretty controlled run. I just concentrated on getting it done. Today is the 18th of September, Chile's Independance day. Which at my house, means that I get to make alot of food today (empandas, pastel de choclo, brazo de reina con majar--in addition to throwing together my assistant's birthday cake--she asked me for peach cobbler). Felt great to stretch out my legs and run long hard strong strides. Came back ready to cook up a storm. P.S. got my new running skirt and I may never wear shorts again on a long run. I LOVE it. It fits my phone in a mesh pocket on the thigh hidden under the skirt so it doesn't bounce around. I can take calls, listen to music, and call the police when they attack me. Man I love that skirt.

Josse, if you have never run in a skirt it will change your life. I swear it. I am the product tester of the girl-running world. Someone should hire me, I swear. Cut and past this link into your browser or google "gym Girl Skirt"

the compression shorts are a lycra mesh, very light weight and there is a slit where the thigh pocket is, and a tiny hole where your earphone cord can poke out of your hip. That pocket can hold gel or your phone, or whatever. But it's the best.

Also, not to keep going on, but these skirts at Rob's running corner are 50-60 bucks. They are on sale online for $32.

Hooray! You're a skirt-convert! I'm wearing mine tomorrow. NICE pace and miles today. HAPPY Chile Independence Day! You're making me hungry for all that great food you're cooking. I bet you are a wonderful chef! Mmmmm...send the leftovers my way...but doubt there would be any. Lucky family! HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
