Running
Couldnโt pass up the nice weather today so decided to go for a run on the trails north of my house. I was shocked to find the boardwalk mostly covered and I had to turn around as I came across another flooded out area.
Last week before kids have school next week with our youngest having to catch a bus before 7am ๐ณ. So I figured I would take advantage again of a not so early but still early morning run before I figure out a new routine next week.
Granted it has been over 24 hrs since the storm but I figured I would make a run around and see some of it.
Trail obstacles
More Trail obstacles that are not helping with my pace
Sidewalk out guess I will take to the road
This is likely the reason we have not had power ๐ฑ
The new day has not brought any change to the weather but I wanted to get this run done early. Not sure it mattered too much as it was like swimming through the humid air and was soaked however the sun wasnโt beating down on me so that is probably a positive.
New Running Shoe Day = Great Day ๐๐โโ๏ธ๐
Long run before the weekend. Probably should have bailed before I started.. Didnโt get great sleep, iPods only half worked, and after the first mile it down poured for 10 min. Then stopped until about the last 10 min just to make sure I was soaked the whole way.
Getting darker in the morning hours makes it slightly harder to get up and move. However, mornings really are the best time for me to get a run in.
Really feeling it in my legs today on this run after all that biking yesterday. However, it was good to start the day with this as it is back to work today.
Thankful for the overcast skies today but it was still humid as can be out and I was drenched at the end. Glad to get these miles done even though I am still not sure what the build up of miles will be for yet.
Rainy miles this morning. I am glad I decided to not pull my long run in today and will wait till tomorrow.
After lots of walking and driving yesterday this run was needed I thought. However, my legs didnโt agree.
This was a fun unplanned exploring run today. We ended up on a road I had been meaning to find in Eden Prairie that is now closed for years and also we were around the Ghost town of Hennepin Village.
Guess I am glad we ran from the bottoms up to this sign as I can say I didnโt know.
Long day but got some miles in before doing some other house projects tonight. I took to some trails and found some hills as well.
Really was a nice cool morning for a run. So I decided to get to what the original thought of miles were vs what I was setting as a bare minimum before I went to bed last night as it has been a busy last 36 hrs with the guests at our campsite.
This one took work to get out and want to run today but this the next few days I am thinking I wonโt find time. So the plan was just to get some millage in but ended up with what I probably hoped for on these tired legs. I will say I was thankful for a very entertaining podcast and their guests to keep me moving.
Got out early to run this morning to enjoy the cool weather. My legs didnโt enjoy it as much as I did but that is ok I wasnโt in a rush.
It was good to get out after work today for a run but maybe eating dinner first wasnโt my best idea.
