It was only 5:30 p.m. when I left the house to run, but it was nearing dark. A month ago plenty of other people would be out at that time, but not any more. Is everyone afraid of the dark? It's not like it was cold outside. In fact, it was rather pleasant. Either I'm weird or everyone else is a weenie. And in my little world, I'm the normal one. Heh.
In my solitude I ran 6 easy miles and tried to take it easy. I think I was successful, for the most part, since my overall time was just under 60 minutes. Who would have thought I'd be running on November 9th in shorts and a technical t-shirt? I also did my upper body and ankle weight workouts before running, and I plan on continuing those three times a week until the race. Maybe it was because I gave blood yesterday, but when I tried pull-ups I couldn't do as many as normal. Or maybe I'm out of practice. We'll see how it goes when I do those exercises on Wednesday.
