Running
Really a beautiful late afternoon to get out and run along the water. Felt good even though I had no plan in place but a loose route in mind.
After what felt like a strange day of work as my flight was in the middle of it. It felt good to just stretch the legs and put some miles in along the waterfront. 🏃🏻♂️
Glad to get this one in the books and feeling as good as I could. On the other hand random running routes lead to more hills than planned. At least this was done in the morning before the day got crazy!
Had to get a late run in tonight as I had a full day in the actual office today. The moon has a yellow glow tonight and the picture doesn’t do it justice. It was still pretty warm out but nicer than yesterday with the sun out and no breeze.
Another brutal day out there today but kept telling myself it was all about getting out there. My route and no rhyme or reason but trying to find some shade. Looking forward to cooler temps this weekend.
I see my friend the heat came back today to make me regret taking yesterday off. At least this path was somewhat shade covered.
Wasn’t even sure I was going to get this run in but glad to get double digits to keep some momentum going forward. Really couldn’t have asked for better weather it was so nice out and hope this weather stays around for a while.
Did I mention I like finding trails? 😉 Had to get this one done early today as going to watch my son run his Cross Country meet was next. Felt good after a day of rest but it was still so humid out.
I don’t entirely know my daughters plan here but so far I think she might be on to something. Maybe I should let her design my next pair of running shoes. 👟 😉
For a minute I was thinking of taking this familiar trail but the heat / humidity was kicking me. I thought running when the sun went down would be better tonight but I was wrong. Fun catching up with my neighbor afterwards but I am guessing the beers didn’t do me any benefits.😁
Good thing I didn’t have to run under this dead tree branch. After the cool weather last night this one felt much harder than it should have been or maybe it was the cake 😁.
Run felt good tonight after the weekend run. My daughters asked me in the middle of the run for cake mix. Which of course I said I would figure it out. Guessing I looked kind of funny carrying a box of cake mix and frosting for the last 2 miles. 🤷♂️
Misery loves company - The perfect title to this run due to the heat and humidity. So it was slow going as hydration was key. However, not all was lost or miserable as the route I planned went by the Minnehaha Creek Headwaters Park.
Probably wouldn’t have done this run if it weren’t for the fact I needed to pickup my car. It was a hot and humid one out there again today.
Finding a trail is always a plus even when it is near familiar paths. It was much warmer than I was thinking on this run but I had to get home from the auto repair shop somehow.
Glad to find some shade tunnels on this run. Not that it was all that hot but I meant to bring water along only to realize I forgot my water bottle at home on the steps 🤦♂️
Touring Waseca today as I tried to figure out how to fit in 17 miles in this town 😉. Biggest struggle was this wasn’t my weekend plan so I didn’t have a lot of water or any fuel. So I tried to find some parks that had water of which some did and some didn’t.
