Had a nice little afternoon jog up to the cemetary enjoying all the flowers in bloom. Nothing has bloomed in order this year because of the cold. Lots of snowball bush and lilac, flowering trees and irises. Next to roses, Irises are my favorite. There are several houses on the way to the cemetary who used lines of Irises to demarkate property lines -- so there are hundreds densely planted. I am still awaiting my roses. Usually by the first week of June, they are in their glory. They are still small tight buds, like me, awaiting the warmer weather to relax and bloom. I felt ok on this run, but was laughing with Ericka earlier today about how neigher of us had run hardly any miles. This will be the worst training episode to date. I never got in a 20 miler and my hamstring kills by mile 12 so, UVM next Saturday should be "fun" :) |
