Month: October 2023

One more day of warm and humid weather. I’ll take it. The Sun was out for much of the run as well. In no time it’ll be slipping down roads in snow and ice.

Today’s run was a 4.8 mile hills route. Pace was what felt like an easy 9:42. Weight was 147.2.

Another warm midday for a run. Not a cloud in the sky. Perfect training weather. This is about the last opportunity for a run like this until next Spring, so I’m glad I had a chance to get out in it.

Today’s run was 12 24 mile hills route. Pace was 9:29. Weight was 146.6.

As I said, the mornings are getting cool. Temperature was around 45 degrees with clear skies and a bright Moon. Time for more gear (sweats, light gloves, hat, etc.). At least there aren’t any clouds of bugs like there are sometimes in the summer.

No real issues on the road. Everything feels OK. It’s almost odd. Usually there’s something doing at least a little complaining.

Today’s run was an 8.05 mile rolling hills route. Pace was 9:38. Weight was 146.6.

A warm, sunny day, so I decided to wait and put in some work at midday. Get some work in with the Sun at it’s highest and some mild (not cool) air. It’s getting well down into the 50’s in the early mornings, so any training in some warmer conditions at this point in the year is good.

It was a bit of an odd run. I didn’t feel like I was working at all. Steady pace, mind the energy level, don’t push, etc. Still went faster than I wanted. Whatever.

Today’s run was a 7.94 mostly flat route, with a few shorter 7% climbs thrown in. Pace was 9:16.
