Beautiful sunny, slippery, mushy, wet morning for 10k.

I'm waiting for the warmest part of the afternoon. It's going to be glorious.

5 miles done in the sun, crops, tshirt.

I walked up the big hill to home (BIG hill).

Some small twinges in my left achilles. Probably just from Saturday's hard, snowy trail run. But I'll keep an eye on it. Overall today was my strongest-feeling run in ages.

Isn't it beautiful out there today!!! I'm so glad that you had a good run. My right achilles is complaining to me, put us together you have a matched set!
I hope they both settle down.

Did a longer run today, since I wasn't feeling up to it yesterday. I love Monday holidays. 90 minutes outside for me (about 13.5K).

Still haven't heard anything about the virtual half-marathon that will replace the First Half. I was planning on doing that next week.

I too got out to enjoy the beautiful day. I ran down to NW Quay - they obviously had some special events (free admission to some stuff) going on as it was the busiest I have probably seen the Quay. I had to do some dodging and weaving.
