easy, stairs and sprint

Words 126

          I thought I was on pace for a record in the mid-run sprint.  I think the first half was really the fastest.  I was feeling good, my arms were moving, and my legs were pumping; I had the Romantics in my ears. 
The problem may have been that I was actually wondering if the people I was passing were thinking that I was running fast.  I don’t usually think about those around me.  Another problem could have been that at the end, there were several people and a couple dogs hanging out near the light pole that I use at the finish line. 

          I did though achieve a record for the run up the stairs. I did only 6 flights today.  I consciously took it easy.
