Wake up weight- 166

I headed out for a bit longer run today than I have been doing all week. I ran towards to lake to the desert the shortest way possible (0.75 miles) then I went off roading through the desert. I tried to find little trails to take and just ran where it looked like I could. I ended up down by the lake. It was beautiful as the sun was comming up. I wish I had my camera to take a picture. After stopping a minute to take in the beauty, I kept going. The trails were rough so I wasn't moving too fast. A few times I had to climb out of washes using my hands it was so steep. I had a blast just out exploring.

Fun!!!!!

Nice to see you running again. When are you going to start your Boston training?

Kathie, my plan is to try and build a nice strong milage base through Dec. running mostly easy miles, then start some marathon training in Jan. for Boston. I'm going to run Boston as a training run this year though. I think I'll even take a camera and stop and take some pictures along the way. I want to peak the beginning of June and try and PR at UVM.
