Running
With taking a kid to the doctors and team meetings all day I gave myself 25 min to run. I was guessing how long it would take me and gave myself a little cushion but finished in 24:42. Didn’t miss any meetings 😁.
Since we still have this nice weather I decided while my girls were at dance I would go run across my hidden bridge again. Only too bad it gets dark so early as once I got back on pavement to trek back it was dark.
Found a gap in my calendar early today and took advantage of it. Decided to explore some trails I haven’t been to in a while.
In between all the stuff today I found some time for a run. I am kind of surprised I had these trails to myself today as the last couple of times I have come across people. 🏃🏻♂️
Had to take it real easy as it got dark fast and these boardwalk and trails require some decent footwork with no running lights. However, it was a well neede break today. 🏃🏻♂️
Found the hidden bridge I was looking for but also another one too 😁. Overall run was good after starting off a little rocky by tripping over rocks on a trail covered by leaves 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️.
Even though I am still not feeling 100% I needed to get outside today. Decided to go out and catch the sunset on a boardwalk trail run. 🏃🏻♂️
Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area is one of my favorite places to run but it is all hills. My Lungs were burning a little today from a nagging cough so I didn’t push it and just enjoyed the views.
It has been a couple of days so it was time to get out for a run. I figured I would just find some trails and do some exploring as I am still trying to find a hidden bridge around Braemar golf course. Didn’t spend to much time looking but I think I know where to look next time.
How could I pass up a chance to run with my youngest at her fun run.
All night she kept telling my wife the it would be fun because it was a “fun run” it says fun. After the run she is questioning the fun part of it 😂 🏃🏻♂️
After the strange weather day we had I stepped out to run and it started sleeting so I gave it 5 min and thankfully it stopped. Glad I didn’t scrap as it was a much needed break after this week and caught the sun setting. 🏃🏻♂️
Another beautiful day to see the fall colors. Wasn’t the plan to get out today but glad I did. 🍂🏃🏻♂️
Update: It has been rainy and cloudy since I finished my run 😉.
Passing the time running while my girls are at dance tonight. I am not sure where this change in weather came from but it was warmer and windier than expected. 🏃🏻♂️
These Fall days… I just wish this picture turned out like how I actually saw it with all the colors. However, this is what gets me out there.
After a couple days off I decided to put a couple miles in while my youngest was at her piano lesson. I was in no hurry and enjoyed the scenery. I wasn’t feeling bad before and still good after but my legs were doing some talking during this run.
Another Twin Cities Marathon in the books. Overall, I am happy with my time as I wasn’t slower than last year even though it was an interesting training cycle. Official time 3:38:48

Done and still smiling for some reason
