6.65 miles, 55:04, 8:16 pace Ran by myself this morning. I made two attempts to get people to run with me. Jenny says I should do a better job about getting people to run with. It is sometimes nice to run by yourself to enjoy the solitude. I wasn't entirely motivated to run this morning but was glad once I was outside with the almost full moon and stars which would soon fade and be replaced with a clear morning sky. I ran out and back to Trinity Blvd and then continued on the grass next to the shoulder. I realized on Friday that this was actually a great place to run because it is kind of like running on a trail. It varies between flat and grassy, to gravelly, sometimes very flat and sometimes uneven. The trails in Starkey Park are very nice but it doesn't open til 6:30 so I can't always get there, just on the weekends if scheduling permits. After my run I did some of the usual post run stretching/mobility exercises along with some push-ups, weighted pull-ups, presses, curls, and walking up and down the stairs 5 times carrying the 25 lb dumbbells. Oh, and then some step ups on and off the bed. That is all.
