I suited up to run on Saturday morning in the midst of Easter week craziness. The first time I got to the front porch it was sprinkling. I decided to wait, not wanting to get caught in a cool, almost cold, Spring rain. After about an hour I figured the time was right and was getting ready to go again when I looked out at the deck and noticed it was sprinkling again. I decided that was enough since we had things to do and took the day off.
Today was another story. I was worn out from work - again - but knew I needed to run. Tuesdays seem to grind me down, for some reason. Anyway, the temperature was about 50 degrees with a cool breeze from the north. I donned shorts and a long-sleeved technical T and hit the streets. Overall my time for 6 miles was just under a 9:15 pace, no doubt aided by the cooler temp and my desire to get back inside.
I suppose it's time to pick a race in order to have a goal this year. I was trying to remember the date of my last marathon. If I have that much trouble remembering when it was then it's definitely time to run another.
