Tues/Wed. runs
The heat wave continues out here in California.
yesterday's run was a hot one. I ran with the kids at practice. We ran via Baltimore Canyon. I ran with my co-coach and 3 of the runners on the team. We ran somewhere between 4.6 and 5 miles... In order to avoid the hot open fire road...we took a steep road up to the king mt. loop and on the way we ran by my twin sister's old house... the run felt good. I was just overall tired from a long day at work and from the heat... I could have gone into the city after the run to do a speed workout (repeat miles) with the women's team that I compete/train with...but I opted not to...I'm still trying to figure out what my new goals are for the fall (training wise)
this morning I got up early 5:20 to run with a few friends (my brother in law--alas didn't join us this morning--he slept in...). we ran the crown road loop. I took cosmo, the whippet along...since she followed me out of bed this morning. running so early in the morning was nice b/c it was so cool.... however the first 20 minutes of our run were in the dark...on trails...so that made the run a bit more adventurous. we ran for 8 miles....and talked the entire way. later on this afternoon i'll hit the trails again with the xc team and run some hill repeats with the group.
more later!
