Today's 9-and-change was so much better than last week's 10 miler. The difference? I think it was the lower humidity -- rather than 86%, it was 66%. This was the Saturday group run and I ran most of the way with Hank and Chris (thanks, guys). I stopped my watch for the 2 hydration points because I wanted to know the actual running time. Total time was 1:16:11 -- a pace of 8:19.8 mpm.
We went to Dogwood Dell to start -- part of the downtown park complex that includes Dogwood Dell, Byrd Park, and Northbank Park -- and ran through some of the older, historic parts of Richmond. The course was relatively flat (well, except for the nasty hill when we went over I-195 at about mile 8.5).
Here's hoping that your run today is just as satisfying.
Run well, y'all,
Bob
I'm not much of a runner - but I did ride my bicycle to my weekly accountability coffee with a brother this morning!
ReplyDeleteI love this time of year in North America.
Biking, running, walking, swimming ... any of those are far, far superior to couch potatoing adn all care for the temple.
