Relatively Easy Week So Far
Monday's Light Day of Running
On Monday I was wiped out from my 20 + mile run on Sunday. I was feeling sore and tired. I ran about three miles on the cross country course and called it a day.
Tuesday's Beautiful Fall Folliage Mud City Loop
On Tuesday I ran an easy 7 mile run with the cross country team on the Mud City loop. The foliage is tremendous right now and the hill sides were filled with color. The run was nice and easy and relaxing.
Wednesday's Double Run
On Wednesday morning I got up and ran the four mile lake loop in the morning. It was nice and warm out. I felt pretty good but took it easy.
On Wednesday afternoon I ran in my new favorite place. I ran in Hubbard Park in Montpellier for a little over an hour with my friend Jenn. It was all trails and very beautiful. The trails were terrific to run on, clear, rolling, runable. I can't wait to go back to those trails. At the end of the run we walked up a tower and got to see a panaromic view of the entire area.
Thursday's Double 7 miler
On Thursday morning I got up and ran my 7 mile lake loop extension run. It was very foggy but I could still see the bright fall colors through the fog. I ran alone and took it easy.
In the afternoon I ran the course again with my friend Katy and ran faster than I did in the morning. I felt really good and was so glad to be out in the crisp late afternoon air.
Friday's Morning Run
This morning I ran an easy three mile run around most of the lake. I went out and back. I wanted to do more but I had some class work to take care of before school began. This afternoon I hope to run anywhere between 5-7 miles. I stayed up too late last night so I am dragging today. Another busy weekend coming up, we have a home cross country meet tomorrow and a trip to Boston tomorrow night. Mark is running the BAA half marathon. I'd like to run about 10-13 miles for the day but won't officially run the race. I wish I was staying home and relaxing for the weekend but I am going to try to make the most out of the traveling.
