Running with Chema...
This Sunday,I couldn't go running with the Garabitas Group, my friends. So, I decided to run alone, near my house, my long training. I wanted to do more than half marathon run, preparing the Madrid's marathon.I did a 2 hours run, and when I was coming back home, I saw in front of me, on the other side of the street, a runner coming straight ahead to me. As I knew that Chema MartÃnez, one of the best long distance spaniard runners was my neighbor, I thought Maybe it's him!!...and It was him!!
Then, I didn't think it twice, I crossed the street and I told him if I could run a few minutes with him!! He was very kind and I enjoyed those minutes really a lot. It was wonderful!!
At the end I ran 2 hours 6', between 23,5 and 24 km (14,6-14,9 miles) and I was really happy!!
After that, we went all the family to spend the day in Aranjuez. A wonderful day!!

oooh how exciting! That's awesome that you went across the street to run with him.
That is exciting. If I had seen a swimmer or some other athlete that I really looked up to, I would have acted in the same way. I bet you felt more of a high after that!@
