Sunday I woke up with a pretty bad cold. Couldn't run Monday. Tuesday - Late night 5 miles on the treadmill. Running with a sore throat and congestion is not fun.

5 miles on the canal road with my wife. The 30 mph headwind on the uphill return trip really made us work.

Ran down to Three Mile Creek Elementary School where my wife teaches, then around a 5k route I'm developing for a fund raising race the school is hosting on May 7th. Ran back home for a total of 6.75 miles.

Three miles late evening on the treadmill. Trying to work on improving speed.

Perfect sunny day. Ran 10 miles on the canal road. Felt so good to be in shorts and short-sleeved shirt.
