Saturday, March 23rd to Sunday, March 29th: 19.4 miles

I ran three times this week:

Sunday, 7 miles, 28F, sunny, a little windy, no stops, 8:10 pace
Tuesday, 7 miles, 42F, windy, no stops, 8:19 pace
Thursday, 5.4 miles, 40F, rainy, calm, no stops, 7:48 pace

I ran pretty hard on the Thursday run. It was sprinkling, damp and a little raw so I just went out, ran hard and went in. It felt good to just get out and let it go!

I went to a friend's house, MK, to help her paint on Saturday. I painted her kitchen ceiling while she painted the walls. It was a workout ... painting a textured ceiling with a 9" roller is hard work! We did have a little fun ... I stepped in her small paint tray while I looking up to see if I had missed a spot. It took longer than we thought, as usual with most things in life.

I have signed up for the Spring Forward 15K on April 6th in Mendon Ponds. It will be my first race of the season.

Keep running, Doug
