Fastrunning blogger Aaron and I met up on the far north end of the Kitsap Peninsula today for 9 morning miles through a sleepy little town called Hansville and to a county park on the water (Twin Spits Road to Point No Point). Picture perfect morning, beautiful view of the islands, I even saw a seal -- though more hills than we anticipated. But those were probably good for us, and they whizzed by. Pretty easy pace, well above 8 minute miles but it was comfortable (for my legs, at least) and a good weekend run. My hamstring is still a little sore, but I've babied it and it hasn't flared up much lately.

| | Week off from work here, so I was able to run at my leisure today. Except my "leisure" included lawn mowing and a lot of yard work I had to catch up on. But a mid-day break for a run was pleasant, and its warm but not too warm. One of my usual routes, uphill through Manette and down 18th Ave to Wheaton Way, then back along Shore Drive. I'm headed to Zacatecas, Mexico later in the week, so hopefully I can use some of Paul's tips for running while on vacation/work trips to maintain some miles.

| | Out Wheaton Way, down Warren Ave Bridge through Evergreen Park, back over Manette Bridge. Easy pace to start, but I stretched my legs out a bit on some flat stretches. Once my hamstrings loosen up I felt kind of peppy. | | Comments(2) |
| | Easy miles on a treadmill in Mexico. The roads here weren't quite the place to get mileage, plus I would have been lost. | | Add Comment |
