Saturday's slog
Saturday's slog
Foggy morning in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, on my way back west. 7K done with 5x30s strides.
Re: Saturday's slog
Nothing for me, as I'm currently falling victim to a nice chest cold. I'm afraid that between that and the heavy humid air, I'd be getting dragged off the trail after about 15 minutes, LOL.

Had a nice and steady 14K lsd with Marg this morning along both sides of the Ottawa River ... a bit hot and humid @24C+, though overcast ... good to be out there again ...

5.8 km on a humid but not-too-hot morning here in Toronto. Pleasant. Passed a bunch of guys carrying canoes (one each, canoe-head style) – carrying them at least a couple of kilometres, too.

I'm feeling like such a slacker seeing long runs from everyone who raced last weekend.
5 km and change with C and DH - first family run in months!

I haven't run since Sunday, so you aren't the slacker! :)

Re: Saturday's slog
Really was a slog today. Aimed for 8K and had to walk the last 1K back. It was not that hot but was really humid. Didn't help that I somehow forgot to put my orthotics in my shoes...so ran the whole way with no insoles. I'm blaming that on the G&T's during the soccer scrimmage last night, before we went to the pub.

10km done to shake off the cobwebs and start June on the right foot.
I'm starting a new job on Monday (nay, a whole new career!) so I'm trading in my crazy old work schedule for a regular schedule, and I'm really excited about this... need to get more consistency back in my running... got a 50k to train for afterall! :)

6 laps of Kits pool, the first 3 trying out the borrowed wetsuit (it's a 137.5m salt water outdoor pool. The wetsuit felt weird but I was definitely faster in it (by about 30s per 100). Eventually I'll probably want one that fits me better but this is good for now. . 1650m total.

It was good (see above) - about 10 seahikers there from various classes. Not everyone brought wetsuits. I hope they do it again. I'm not sure I'd come after running and paddling either.

Gorgeous morning for a run, 13k done. Lots of people out today.
Re: Saturday's slog
I had a nice easy 8km race in Calgary. The weather was great for running.
If you have to ask me why I Run, You probably wouldn't understand!
