Week Ten - Long Run
Today was about as close to perfect running weather as one could ask for. Comfortably warm, mostly overcast, mild breezes, and dry. The run itself also went well. But it was another run where, because I had left my Polar footpod in my locker at the Rec Center, I had to run without data except for the time. Fortunately mapmyrun.com is a trusty back-up, and so my average heart rate is the only data that end up being missing from the record.
Today's run was also a respite in the distance build-up, so I only had to run 13 miles. Nice! The route was from home to Minnehaha Falls and back, along the creek. Sarah rode along and also had a pleasant (if slow) bike ride. We shared a mint chocolate Cliff bar at the falls.
