Sunday, 1/24/2016: 8.4 miles (actually 15K), 1:15:21, 8:58 pace, 19F, 86% RH, 8 mph SW wind, wind chill 10F, overcast
Garmin Connect Activity for A really nice and easy 15K
It was cold but I needed to run so run I did. I dressed warmer than usual: my CW-X tights, a long sleeve tech, 1/4 zip Brooks pullover, Brooks jacket, balaclava, Brooks beanie and mittens. I forgot to turn on my Garmin until a mile in but I had a really nice and easy pace. No problems ... just a relaxing run. My splits for the 8.4 miles that the Garmin was on: 9:20, 8:58, 8:57, 8:59, 8:32, 8:28, 9:18, 9:15 and 8:53 over the last 0.4 mile.
Monday, 1/25/2016: 2.4 miles, 31:23, 13:04 pace, 39F, 48% RH, 7 mph SSE wind, wind chill 34F, overcast.
The weather forecast was for a warming trend so I knew I had to get out for a snowshoe run before the snow disappeared. I just took it really nice and easy. I went into the Lakeshore Country Club and skirted its edges. I saw a cross country ski track so I knew I wasn't the first one in there. My splits were: 13:14, 12:36 and 13:51 over the last 0.4 mile.
Tuesday, 1/26/2016 and Wednesday, 1/26/2016: Rest days
I had to work 70 minutes late on Tuesday so ... that helped make for a late daylight start for Thursday.
Thursday, 1/28/2016: 9.3 miles, 1:19:00 estimated, 8:30 pace estimated, 43F, 49% RH, 10 mph SW wind, wind chill 37F, overcast.
Garmin Connect Activity for Gamin died on 15K route
I got home early due to 70 minutes of comp time from Tuesday. So I got out in the daylight at 4:37 PM. I did wear my reflective vest and my fully charged headlamp. I went out on my usual 15K route. My Garmin died just before mile 5 but I continued onward. I turned on my headlamp around mile 6 and it was kind of dark by the time I got home. My splits were: 8:22, 8:10, 8:13, 8:22, 8:38 over the last 0.91 mile.
Friday: 1/29/2016: Rest day.
Saturday, 1/30/2016: 8.2 miles, 1:05:22, 7:56 pace, 40F estimated, a bit windy, almost sunny.
I needed to get out for a run ... trust me. I got out just after noon. I struck up a fast pace and held on my 8.2 mile route on Edgemere Drive out to Long Pond Rd and back. Boom. My Garmin should have uploaded but it didn't. It's still on my Garmin though.
Christine went out for her "Tons of Fun" weigh in at Fleet Feet Ridgeway. Then she said that she was going shopping. She came home a bit excited about losing 1.8 pounds and also with some nice bras and panties.
We quietly got ready for the Greater Rochester Track Club (GRTC) banquet, link here. We got there at 5 PM for the social hour and sat at table #4 with Prem Kumar, Chris Patterson, Heather Patterson, Kenny Goodfellow, Alex Tong, Bill Beyerbach and his girlfriend, Renee. I picked up some awards: a platinum mileage patch for running 58 races with 410.8 racing miles, 3rd in my Rochester Runner of the Year (RROY) M50-59 age group (link here), a glass for running 6 or more RROY races and a mug.
