Solo Ten 久しぶり -- Thu. May 22

Given that the Fri/Sat are taken up with graduations, and even Thu. evening is out with a trip to Boston, I went out Thu. a.m. for my planned weekly double digit run. First such in many weeks, so I wasn't going to to do much more than 10. When I set out I was indeed feeling a bit early morning (it was 8:45 or so) and I only had an hour and a quarter. So the simple obvious route was rail trail, which I duly did, entering from GeoHannum and going down all the way to just short of 181, turning round and coming back, stopping the clock at 10, with near perfect timing:

Time: 1:15:09
Distance: 10.05 miles
Speed: 8 mph

Comment: this takes me to a 25 mile week, and finally a feeling I'm getting back into some sort of useful shape. Phew. Next week a bit more, I hope. Weather was oddly early spring still: ran in longs, with slight rain the whole time (no hat though).
