Running
This run was mostly done so I could goto the pharmacy to get my son some medicine. On the way back I wanted to see if this nice hockey rink got picked up before stuff might get lost and it did. Bummer knowing they probably had a week or two to use it.
Here is what it did look like on Jan 11th
Kind of forced this run by leaving myself no out. My youngest had a swim meet this morning and then other things. So I had my wife leave me at the swim meet to run home. Since I had to be home in 2 hrs to get my daughter to hockey it probably gave me more drive than needed.
It was short weather today for this run and crazy to think it is Feb 1st. I was planning on doing less millage than this as I am trying to build the weekly millage slowly but it was too nice to cut this short. I will adjust the rest of the week.
Decided to get an early run in today in order to make sure I had time for it. Very quiet out which made for a nice morning. If only it was that time of year when I could have watched the sunrise. Also, not sure why I decided on a new route that of course I took a wrong turn and added some millage.
Nice and sunny out today for this run. I think adding so much millage last week might have made me felt more tired today than I should have.
If you look closely at this photo you can see there is a good chance that someone is going to lose a pond hockey goal if this warm weather keeps up.
Well got a nice long run in even if I lead us down some very muddy trails… I was close at points but at least I didn’t fall.
Finally got an earlier morning run in today as the kids didn’t have school. However, with the fog / mist again no sunrise views. I tried to keep this one with my heart rate low. I have never done this before but it is much harder than it seems and I checked my watch constantly.
This crazy weather.. You almost wouldn’t even know it was winter here from this picture. However, it wasn’t bad running weather to get out there today but the whole time it was misting in the air. Glad I wore a rain jacket but it caused a little watch issues 😒
The run itself felt good but boy was there some slick spots out there. What you can’t tell is the hidden ice on this sidewalk. We got a little mist (or snow that melted) and with temps hovering around freezing this is what happens.
Amazing how much better 30°F weather is to run in after all the single or below zero temps we had last week. I wish I could have gotten out in the afternoon vs the evening as we had sleet about 30 min before I went out and a couple places were getting slick.
Was still cold outside on my run today but glad to get a couple more miles in before the weekend. In a round about way I have stuck to my plan for the week so feeling good overall but do wish I could have gotten a longer one in.
With the sun out today this run felt much warmer. There was a little wind out so I strategically tried to not run into it for as much as possible.
Didn’t want to not have run for 4 days because I was at a hockey tournament so I decided to go for a run to tonight in this balmy weather. Seemed like a good time to finally get my yearly Frozen Face picture too.
Was a cold one out there today so it was just a meandering run on very familiar paths. Decided to take the backyard trail but it was very rough as no one seems to maintain it.
Had the time today to peel away from my desk and get a little longer run in before the snow flew this afternoon. I had no real plan on this run but found myself on this trail that doesn’t have too much snow yet to be a problem.
Had to go pickup the van from an oil change today so the only logical way was to run there. I should probably avoid this tunnel but I didn’t want to cross the major road so just ran fast.
Making fresh tracks while the snow was falling today on my run. Don’t get me wrong when I was on the sidewalks I was a little nervous about slipping but I didn’t slip or fall only scare was a dog that lunged at me on his leash and snagged my running pants. 🙄
