After reading on this blog site, that even Jake Krong runs at an 8 min. pace from time to time, I thought to myself.... hey, I can run an 8 min. pace.  Even better..... I can run slower than an 8 min. pace!  Everything was going according to plan, up until about mile 7 when I couldn't help but pick it up a bit near the end of the run.  It didn't help that I saw a runner about 400 yards ahead of me moving at a good clip down River St.  There was my carrot!  It turns out that she was moving at a very good pace, because I didn't catch her until I was nearing the end of my run about a mile later.  I passed her going over a little knoll in the road, and just as I was passing, a police cruiser crested the other side of the blind knoll.  I glanced over just as the cop was waving his arms inside his car.  My reaction was WTF???? and I proceeded to mimick him and wave my arms back with a similiar nasty look.  I thought that I was going to get spoken to, but nothing materialized from the encounter..... good thing for me, because I was definitely rubbed the wrong way!  Dirty Copper!  Ha ha!
