Unfortunately the nice weather didn't hold, and I chose to run in the afternoon instead of morning, when of course it had just started raining. But Paul and I made it through the canal trail and up to first dam from downtown on a nasty day, I'm not sure what our pace was but it was good with me. I was trying to get my legs and mind calibrated to 7 minute miles, just to be sure I could hit that since it was my estimate for Relay del Sol. Even though the weather was lousy, running with Paul and without the stress of returning to work or anything was great and very helpful mentally. |
