Long run this morning.  Covered the gamut of weather phenomenon.  Overcast/cool/breezy for the first 1/3 of the run. Sunny and hot for the second 1/3.  Rain, lightning and thunder for the final 1/3 of the run. 

Saw the marathon clinic coming back in along Eglinton Ave W, west of Scarlett Rd.  I was going out at that point, heading to my turn around at Martingrove Collegiate for the final 10k of my run.

Felt tired and sore for most of the rest of Sunday, although quite refreshed after family namp with Jamie.  I'm writing this Monday morning and it feels like I could go out and do another 30k today!  Actually, I'll take my scheduled rest day, thank you very much.

Got out for my hills this week, in advance of a very busy weekend.  Hope that I can still do my 20-miler on Sunday or possibly postpone to the holiday Monday.
