Beautiful day. Got the shorts and Rainbows out. I ran in the afternoon down on the south end of town to get a change of scenery. I had to get some stuff at staples, and I was really craving Chipotle, so I fit in a run all in one swoop. When at Staples, a women commented that I was brave for wearing shorts and flip flops out. I was surprised since I though everyone would think it was a nice day... Anyways headed over to the lot behind Wal Mart and ran on the trail from there. I didnt realize, but the trail was mostly covered in snow and ice still. It hadnt thawed. It made running kinda tough but I managed. Pace fluctuated. Also, the tunnel that goes under Rt 9 was closed, so I went out that way, turned around till the golf course, then ran back to the tunnel and back to the lot. It was a good estimation of mileage. Felt good today, I was basically the only one out on the trail. Achillies was a little tight, but that was from wobbling around on the ice.
Essentials: Stretch
Stretched in the parking lot. It was starting to get windy, and that meant I was getting a little cold. Headed over to Chipotle for dinner. Ahhh so clutch.Supposed to get colder next week. These little previews of spring are nice, gotta bust out the shorts every once and a while.
