Missed running yesterday: head/nose cold, and aching all over, even back pain for first time in ages. Good day to be sick -- massive dose of "wintry mix" after snow in the night, so a horrible day to be out on roads. Also wicked busy work wise -- kind of a week from hell, and ongoing...
Today, sunny, with a cold cutting wind, and I'm feeling ready to risk it; also need to see how I might feel for the Jones Ten tomorrow. So, out in full gear (good choice -- even with longs on the wind is chilly, despite obvious melting all around): down to water plant, but don't stop: straight up trail round to Wallace pond, then double back and follow snowmobile tracks to come out onto 202 a bit before Underwood, then head down 202 towards Eskett. Cut in there, then back on Boardman to 202, down to School St and back up to Stebbins, then GeoHannum to Rural, round to Boardman, and then straight home, thus:
Time: 1:25:06
Distance: 10.21 miles
Pace: 8:20s
Comment: Training for easy pace long distance here, a minute slower than my (target) mpace. Felt okay, cold notwithstanding, though a twinge or two from my back. Hmm. I think I'll aim to take tomorrow a bit easy. . .
