8 miles.
Last run as a 39 year old was as anti-climactic as one might expect. 7:00 pace on the roads and in the woods with Lilah. Did some strides and then one unexpected last one as we attempted to outrun a 75 lb. boxer that looked ornery and belligerent on the path. I grabbed a big stick and charged at him, wondering what I'd do if my little charade didn't work. Luckily, it did. I think I was genuinely angry enough at the the threat to Lilah to make it seem pretty real to the poor pup.
