I got up at 6:00am and went out on a Center Street/River Heights loop. It was dark and pooring rain. I was soaked about 2 minutes into my run, and it continued to poor on me for another 50 minutes. By the end of the run I started to feel the weight of my drenched clothing, but overall I didn't feel to bad. I was planning on a couple more miles, but I was miserable so I cut it short and made it 7 miles. At the end of the run the rain turned to snow, and about 10 minutes after I got home everything completely stopped. I got home and undressed, made some hot chocolate, and jumped in an extemely hot shower to unchill.

I ran yesterday at noon, last night at 6:30pm, and this morning. The purpose of running shorter runs close together was to give me a feel of what Del Sol will be like. Even though I ran three times in 20 hours, it is still not completely accurate because in the relay I will actually run three times in about 13-14 hours. I figure it is close enough for training and I plan on doing it a couple more times in the next week. |
