After all the slow ass running over the winter hitting the pavement around a whopping 6:00 pace is taking a toll. No big deal , just a badge of honor that will pass. Over the next couple of weeks I expect to hit the pavement regularly so this will pass. Logged another 5 km around APK again today on my meal break.
Weigh in 179 lbs ... I am OK with that all things considered , goal is 175 by July.
5K at lunch again today , Sun 10C but wind ...it was pleasant.
Back in Allan Park after a month WFH. Logged a 5 km " lunch run " on my 1K paved loop around the Earth Station.
6 laps good for 5.6 km on the backyard trail Thursday after work. Took a rest day Friday, the weather was miserable. On Saturday I hit the darn near entirely snow free backyard trail logging 5 laps , 4.8 km. Sunday was a miserable weather day so I added another rest day opting not to run ...better weather is just ahead and so are some longer runs.
Snow is disappearing fast hit the trail Tuesday and Wedsensday after taking a rest day Monday I logged a 4.8 km Wed and a 5.6 km run Tues . Had Dax along for both and was in shorts as the temps were in the high teens. Tuesday there was 95% snow cover but that dropped to 60% Wed and I expect today it will be even better. Spring is a bit early and I am OK with that...putting the Skies away!
Saturday - Grant dropped by and him Dax and I did 8 laps good for 7.2 km. Trail is still 95% snow covered but I fully expect that's going to change this week.
Sunday - Headed put with Dax again doing 6 laps good for 5.6 km. It was cold overnight so the trail firmed up. Its super warm in the mid teens all week never going below freezing so I fully expect the trail to be close to 100% open by the end of the week. There is going to be a few days when its mush so I will need to hit the road.
Its been a funny week not up to too much but I have started back on the trail again.
Thursday I headed out after work for 5 laps on the backyard trail. Wasn't sure I was going to be able to manage as the snow was soft in spots and I kept skidding out and post holing.
Friday it was 6 laps after lunch. It was cold overnight so things were firm it was more like running on concrete.
Both days Dax was with me.
