monday double
am:
ran the usual larkspur winter loop @ 5:45 ish in the morning. The three of us all seemed a bit tired. We ran the course in a leisurely 58 minutes or so. It wasn't as cold as it has been...we chatted nonstop and my legs were tired from Sunday's workout but not as tired as I thought they might be.
pm:
by this time it was storming...rain was coming down and branches and leaves were falling from the sky. forecasts were pitching predictions of 4 to 5 inches of rain for the night... that didn't stop us. i picked up alison at the airport, then my brother in law at the ferry building and we headed over to larkspur. we did the crown road loop. we started down on the flats, then headed up the hill behind the pizza shop....and made our way to crown road --flat ~ 3 mile ish section of fire road-- and then came out in corte madera where we ran straight down a winding hill...and ran back on the bike trail. the night was dark and stormie...the trail was a bit foggy...so it was hard to show off the landscape to alison...but never the less it was an adventure...we chatted nonstop....about all sorts of t hings...and we finished up the run in 59 minutes or so. it was a great run indeed!!!! (at times the winds were so strong i felt like we all might be blown off the fire road and into the canyon below...! :) )

Nice double day! The crown road run sounds adventurous - so foggy and windy and rainy. Glad you had a good run. Looking forward to more report.. I hope the sun comes out soon. :)
