    great Summer rain 4.5 km 00:25 08:56 pace

    Didn't care about the rain, I just wanted to go. Headed for home when the thunder started. Wish I could have kept going. I was loving it today!

    My first run since the marathon. A little calf soreness still but I took it slow. Headed home once the thunder and pouring rain started. Finished on the TM.

      I'm still really happy with my time. First time doing the full course and I enjoyed it! I ran the last leg of the relay with the old finish at Queens Park. I like this finish a lot better!

    If every day could be like today I'd be so happy. Need to adapt to running in the heat but I did well. Threw in a few strides at the end. Easy pace has definitely gotten faster.

    An easy 16km on a glorious Sunday morning. I kept thinking about next Sunday and my plan of attack. Was nice to (finally) see lots of other runners come out of hibernation.

      Sounds like a very good - and very doable - plan. I'm sure you'll nail this one. By the way, I thought of you yesterday when was in my local Bulk Barn, and passed by the chocolate-covered pretzels and teddy grahams. :-)

      Awesome about the goals. You can do it for sure! I have that book and I have been slowly reading it. I was actually going to use a plan from it for the next race in the fall (the one I am using right now is from 'Road Racing for Serious Runners' and I will see how it goes next weekend too!) So it is a good plan then? Excellent. I can't wait until next weekend!! Oh and so sick you eat that stuff on the run, that's wicked haha
