Saturday Long Run
Today was a bit of a switch from the normal routine. This morning was 1:45 in the trails from ARWR outer loop north to the memorial forest loop. First solo long run I have done in a while and predictably went too fast. I have to get the pace down on the solo long runs so I can recover for the workouts.
I just watched the first half of the world cup hockey game USA vs. Italy. 2 yellow cards, 2 red cards. One red for an elbow to Brian McBrides face which opened up a gushing cut and one on USA for a late slide tackle. Seemed like the slide tackle should have been a yellow but the ref obviously wanted to even things up. It is hard to tell when a player just dives on the ground or if he is pulverized down into the turf. I think there is a lot of acting going on.
Ok, back to the second half, they are done re-surfacing the ice.
