Saturday May 5th

Sandwiched in a super easy 20Ks between PYP last weekend and Seaton next weekend.   Headed out with the STWM work crowd Gordon,  Patrick , Chris and we brought along Raj who was about to log his longest ever run.  Temps were pretty comfortable stating in the high single digits pushing into the mid teens.  Raj was overdressed with black pants and a black long sleeve shirt and a black hat to boot!   Held a 7:00 ish pace through 5K but it was taking a tool on Raj so I backed it down to a 8:00 ish pace with a 200 meter walkat the 800 meter mark of each K.   We were running the Georgian Rail Trail starting in Thornbury and heading towards Collingwood...super easy running! 

 My fitbit HR data tells the tale ...dont think I have ever run with my HR in the 11X range! 

Wednesday May 2nd

Squeezed in 6 laps logged on the backyard trail logging 5.6 Ks.

Little Trail

Two Run Tuesday

A little 5.6 Ker done on the backyard trail after work today.  Just had to do it ,  27C and still running on Snow! 

Lunch Run

Suffering from DOMS  today and yesterday not going down the stairs backwards but close to that on Monday.   Today  I am at around 50% so I squeaked out a 5Ker @ 6:00 pace today on my meal break.  Looking forward to another 5Ker on the trail after work.

Backyard Trail - April 30th

 First run on the backyard trail was done yesterday after work logging a little 4Ker with some much needed hammock time yesterday.   The trail was 50% snow covered  very different from last year at this time I was running the trail all through April!   Looking forward to some much overdue  2 run days!
