Clyde's Comeback!

Freeway loop this morning. If seemed cold but wasn't much worse than it's been the last week or so. Maybe a little more humid today. I slept out on the lawn in a tent with Myler and was warm all night but we got out around 6:40 a.m in the darkness and in my PJ's it kind of set a chill in- then got dressed for the run and went out and was chilly for the first 5. Never really felt great today and realistically the legs felt way too heavy. Almost post workout or race heavy. But this 10 mile loop is much more hilly than the loop I did all last week so that could have had something to do with it. 

5.6 miles tonight around the B-hills inner loop. I wasn't going to run any doubles through the month of October but today is the 31st and I looked at my monthly mileage as needed 15 today to hit a lousy 250 mile for the month. So I got out and as usual on Halloween it was a perfect nice day for  a run. 5 p.m shorts and a running singlet (could have gone shirtless). Felt pretty good too. 

Freeway loop again but then extended back around the park at the end to pick up a little more. Felt so so today. Nothing bad or great. Just a run. Started out with a warm hat and gloves on and took it off 6 miles into the run. 

River Road/ DC loop then extended all the way back around Jedora at the end. I was up early and out running by 5:20. It seemed like it was going to be a lot colder than it was but at 45 F it was warmer than the last couple days. I guess the wind just makes it seem colder. The wind was a pain for the first couple miles then I turned off river road and never really felt it again. 

Trying to get the boat winterized today. 

Middle B-hills loop this morning then extended around Little Valley at the end. It was a chilly 33 F this morning and for the first time of the season I put on some tights. Maybe a little over kill but early in the year I'm not use to the cold and have to take extra measures. Not a bad little outing and I wasn't cold at all. Legs felt pretty good too. 

Glad I got the boat all winterized and back in the storage unit. Now I need to get my little portable green house built over the top of the garden to save the tomato plants before frost kills them off. 

Went to running club and was greeted by no one- So this was a solo flight. I started out and thought I'd just do a few and call it because it was already 7 and dark out. Started out going up to the corner and back to see if anyone else was coming. Then headed south into Bloomington to do the regular club loop. It was a nice evening and basically perfect running weather. I felt good tonight too. The best post-STGM run I've had. Clicked a long for the first 6 miles under 7 min pace and then the last 4 miles most likely were under 6 min pace as I picked it up. I didn't have a watch but just felt smooth and fast. I'm grateful for runs like this every once in a while that make the other junk runs seem worth it. Finished and felt like I hadn't even ran.

B-hills loop in reverse then extended around Little Valley. Kind of slower and achy this morning. Expected after running later and a little longer last night. It was warmer this morning than yesterday but it felt pretty chilly. Still pretty good running conditions. 

Little morning run with Logan. Met him over at DHHS and looped into Bloomington then back up and through B-hills to the high school. 7 min mile avg and we started very slow with one of his girl runners. Windy and coldish this morning and really not that fun to run in.
