Sun: 6.2 miles, 50:41, 8:10 pace, Run to bank, then to Russell's, 54F, 1 stop, no pain.
Garmin Connect Activity for Run to Bank, then out to Russell's
Hopefully, early spring made a brief return ... 54F today with a brisk north wind. I ran to the bank to get money so I could get my car back from Russell's. He fixed a broken fan cowling and fixed a water leak.
Tue: 5.7 miles, 46:12, 8:06 pace, FF Cobbs Hill run, 70F, sunny, calm, 1 water stop, 3 traffic stops, no pain.
Garmin Connect Activity for FF Cobb's Hill run, 2 Y's, back on Highland
The last Cobbs Hill run before speed workouts begin next week. A very nice run, perfect temperature. I had a very mild ache in my rib afterward. Once I got home, I had an urge to cook. So I made a couple turkey burgers, sweet potatoes and salad with cucumbers and tomatoes. Well, the turkey burgers were preformed and I just warmed the package of sweet potatoes. But still, it tasted pretty good.
I learned that CJ will be staying Cleveland until she is done going through her stuff. She wants to get it completely done. Now all we have to do is decide whether to fill a pod or fill a 10 foot truck.
Thu: 5 miles, 39:21, 7:52 pace, Remington's Run, 66F, sunny, no stops, no pain.
Garmin Connect Activity for Remington's Run
I headed down to Remington's for my first Remington's Run. I started out slow around 9:00 pace and finished fast around 7:00 pace. I am glad I went ... a run is never regretted!
Fri: 4.1 miles, 31:12, 7:37 pace, FF Happy Hour run, 72F, sunny, no stops, no pain.
Garmin Connect Activity for FF Happy Hour run
I put in a fast Happy Hour run, just cranked it out! Laps of 7:21, 7:52, 7:49, 7:29. Sweet!
Sat: 3.1 miles, 22:02, 7:06 pace, Newark Running for the Red 5K, 64F, cloudy, calm, humid, no stops, no pain.
I ran pretty well ... up the hill out of Newark in 7:12, 2nd mile in 7:14, 3rd mile in 6:52, nipped at the line by the 1st woman in 22:02, my fastest 5K time of 2010 ... so far. I was 18th overall, 5th in my 50-59 age group. Oh, I won a door prize ... 2 9 hole gift certificates at Erie Falcon in Newark. I plan on giving them away since I don't golf.
The 1st woman seen in the pic above was the 25 year old daughter of a girl I went to high school with. We spent some time catching up on what has happened in our lives. She thought it was so romantic how CJ 'friended' me on Facebook after 32 years. CJ told me that she will be coming back from Cleveland on Tue or Wed. Sweet! I guess I will have to do the laundry and pick up the apartment.
The rest of the day was uneventful. I walked around Newarkfest for a while, ate a half chicken lunch from the Park Presbyterian Church, saw my father at the Wayne County Nursing Home, saw my kids at my ex's, and just relaxed. CJ is still out in Cleveland sorting and boxing up her stuff ... I miss her.
Keeping active, Doug
