A sweetness run on the EB today... love the cooler temps and I must say my absolute favorite time to run is when you start out and it is dry and then its start raining during the run, it just doesn't get any better...(as far as running goes that is)... came down good for about half the run, even some fairly close lightening strikes, with some loud thunder, that kept me on edge!

felt great today the legs had pep, even on the uphills and ran it good went from Beus pond up to steep hill over on the upper bench looped the Spring and cam back up to the upper trail and back over and down... ran through this one section where there was a canopy of trees and a bunch of fallen leaves, but they were green and yellow leaves and the light was such that it was like a green world in this little grove of trees, it was cool!

Went for 6.2 miles and I think 55 minutes... which is pretty good considering the hills that I climbed! 9:02/mile ave...10:37, 8:52, 8:01, 10:16, 8:44, 7:57...

Thinking about the OV50... but just thinking...

Hit the bench at lunch started at MO and went through the park up 29th across buchanan up 27th and onto trail along lower trail to 21st up to upper trail and back along all the way pver to Strongs and then cut back... good little jaunt, pushed at times, took it easy at other times. temps were good! 1:05 total run time 9:15/mile ave...9:20, 8:55, 10:33, 9:56, 9:51, 8:40, 7:35..

Woke up got out a bed, went for run around Eden... nice little run before the sun came up, took a bit for it to get light with the cloud cover... no fast speeds this morning, just enjoyed the morning air! Ave. 8:16/mile

Added 4 solid miles this afternoon after work on the 29er short loop... ate a bigger lunch than normal today and it didn't sit all that well during the run... but it was still good to double up for the day... also did 105 jumps on the Pilate table tonight, have done them Sun, Mon, and Thursday nights... that is my goal to get 5 nights a week for ski training, and start adding more... man that is a good short workout, I need to do more of this kinda stuff!
