Neighborhood loop - 5.25 miles with Megan, averaged 9:53

Really enjoyed this one. Megan asked if she could come. I wish she always came with me. I actually enjoy running when she does. Took a slightly different route into Wissahickon Valley Park. It's a really nice area.

Incidentally the average listing price for house in Chestnut Hill is $800,000. We don't belong here :-)

You're all right Jason. Hope to meet you someday.

Thanks, Rob. I appreciate that.

He's a prince in real life, Rob.

Running w/ your significant other makes an already very enjoyable pursuit even better. Same goes for running with a parent - it's just awesome to share the experience.

I'm always envious of the fathers who run with their sons. My dad could barely throw a baseball when I was younger (shoulder) and by the time I took up running he had already had both hips long replaced. We were able to play basketball, which was okay with me. Some golf too.
