Nice solo run today. Was supposed to meet Sara for 4, but got to her house and it was all dark. Waited for a few minutes, then decided to do a nice fairly flat 5 miler. Little Valley Loop, one of my favorites. No IPOD, so nice chance to reflect on Christmas vacation coming up and plans for that week (even mentally reviewed packing- LOL). I started my watch then didn't look at it again until finished. I didn't want to be pressured, I wanted to find a nice steady pace. It felt like I was able to keep the 9:55 pace with no speeding up or slowing, nice easy run- only stopping to take off some layers and cross a road. So glad I got my run in. Will need the energy it brings- I'll be BUSY today with a long list of Dr. Appt., work, shopping, cleaning, gymnastic performance and family coming into town!
Oh- no more real thoughts on Moab alternative. I'm really not feeling ready for a 1/2, but I'd do it for fun if the gals come into town for it. Otherwise I'd consider SLC 1/2 or Hurricane in the Spring. I need to find the date for the SLC half...
Note to self..818.17 miles logged since joined the FRB in March. Probably ran about 100ish combined in Jan & Feb. Trying to decide what goals for next year will be... |
