Training Log Archive: cmorse

Cool, light rain. Ran sampler w/ Jackson and Anna - due to handicapped starts, they went off before me and we all agreed that we would run our own races rather than run together. So I actually raced the course - with the goal of not getting passed by any faster runners starting after me. (I had a 1:58 lead over scratch runners due to my advancing years). Ran well, only passed by one person but couldn't quite catch the 3rd place finisher in the field leading to the finish. Settled for 4th overall. Still, I think that this is a new PR for the sampler course which I've run well over a hundred times over the years. Wish I were faster though..

Jogged back out on the course after finishing to see where Anna and Jackson were - they were on the climb up woodchuck and walking together. I stayed with Anna and Jackson took off running - apparently running the entire remainder of the course - said he passed 5 or 6 people on the way back in - probably a good confidence booster for him. I walked the rest of the course with Anna who didn't have any more running in her.

Hayden wanted to ride his bike in the driveway, so I lugged the trainer up from the basement and set it up in the garage and read some more of Barefoot Sisters that I started in February and never finished. Legs kind of tight from this mornings effort so I just kind of spun at a leisurely rate...
