Weekend Running Recap

My 5.4 mile run on Saturday was so much fun. Two miles with Mark & the dogs up and down a hill (the new dog setup is wayyyy better). Quick stop to drop the dogs back at home, then 3 miles easy out and back on the ditch bank. Approaching home, picked it up for 0.4 miles at 5K race pace. What a blast!

Which reminds me, there was a description in a recent Runners World of a dog run workout. Anyone else remember it? It totally cracked me up. I don't remember eactly, but it was along the lines of "run fast, stop to pee, dart left to chase a rabbit, etc." LOL

Today I went out again on the ditch bank for 3.2 miles easy. I took it nice and slow, a really peaceful experience. My favorite type of running...

Congrats to all the Rock & Rollers and anyone else who raced this weeked!

  8. I remember reading that dog-run/workout somewhere - hilarious! Actually, I think it was something Jess (21 Days) wrote and may not even be connected to that article. Anyway, FUNNY!

    Great job on the run!

  11. I had my long slow run yesterday. Besides having a cold, I was thinking how peaceful it was to run in zone 2 (slow) even though folks were passing me. It was nice.
