Since I found myself in the right place today I was glad to have tossed in my running shoes so I could go exploring and start collecting some 612 POAPs. Hindsight, I should have looked closer at the map where they were (missed some) and been aware of road/bridge closures as I ended up adding more miles than planned.
I can’t complain about my setup on the University of Minnesota today.

Since my daughter had to get up really early for Hockey today I decided I would get my run in early as well before I started my day. Weather wise it was better than the weekend but still humid out. If did some trails and some road to keep the variety going and scenery.
It is going to be a hot one today and tomorrow so after procrastinating for a while I decided this was my time to run if it was going to happen at all this weekend. should get just a little bit more millage for the week to at least keep building on that even though I bailed on a long run.
Decided to use my time wisely this morning as my daughter was at hockey practice and I got a handful of miles in before I needed to pick her up.
How can I pass up a game of Catan, when my oldest asked to play. ๐พ๐งฑ๐๐ชต๐
I lost thoughtโฆ ๐
Donโt be fooled by this shady part as the rest of my run felt like the opposite of cool but more close to melting in the sun. I donโt think Iโm used to the heat yet as my body definitely would not have been ready for the long run and envisioned in my mind so I was happy to get done what I got done.
Warm out again today but glad to get some more miles in forโฆ. Oh wait, I donโt have anything on my radar for running. Oh well, it is great me time so a win anyways.
No photo taken as it was hot and I kept telling myself to wait to stop as I feared if I did I would want to stop and thenโฆ. I was done ๐ ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It was a warm one out there tonight on this run. However, I did notice on this trail these signs look new almost like they might really be serious now. Well for another day as it makes no sense the other side of the tracks is the actual trail. ๐ค๏ธ
Also found another looked like trail to this dead end.
I am glad to have gotten this long run done today but not sure my legs and body were ready for it like my mind was. Besides that though it was nice out and only got misted on a little bit. Not to mention the scenery of this run is always a favorite for street running.
Decided to get a short run in between the rain today as it is looking very rainy all weekend so not sure what that is going to mean for me.
While waiting for the kids to come back home tonight I decided after work to get a run in. Letโs just say my legs were talking to me from yesterday but I kept plodding along in the heat to grind out the miles.
Not going to lie I did not have learn to use Apple Configurator to perform a recovery of this Mac Mini M1 on my bingo card for tonight. The plan was to just reinstall the OS not get into the Device Firmware Update and mess with things.
However, it did work and I am mostly back and running.
Decided to find some elevation and hit the trails today. Running at this location provides me with more elevation than I can normally get and out of the trails on the top you get some nice views even if it is from a “trail” you might have just followed that was not on the map.
Decided to get out and enjoy the weather today with a short run to round off the day. We didnโt have much going on today so it made sense to do something.
Was glad to fine some time to get out for a run today and actually I was able to extend it as I was feeling good and realized I had some more time to kill. I think, I need to have a little longer run during the weeks as it might help with my recovery of my long runs as they are fine but I have felt it for days after the last couple weeks.
Figured I should get some miles in today since it was Global Running Day! ๐โโ๏ธ
Legs felt heavy at the start but loosened up along the run so it was a good idea to get out there.
Been a long time since I have done a long run late in the evening. The goal was to start earlier but things pushed it back. When I finally started I decided to just go with it. Wasnโt bad overall air quality and temp was good, legs felt heavy in the last stretches and it was really dark.
Happy 16th Birthday to this kid today! I canโt believe he is 16 years old and will now be out driving in the real world without his parents. So proud of him!
