Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Yea... a true night run. Super busy today doing experiments, class and finishing up the merchandise order. Seemed like I was juggling a lot all at once, but I made it through. Ate dinner, played Catan, then eventually headed out around 8:30pm. Started out fast. I was the only one out and I knew it was time to run. I even played Catan in my running clothes as further incentive to get out the door. Thought it was cold, but I actually overheated quickly. Kinda wandered around, but ended up by Amherst College tennis courts and then down the access road to Fort Hill. Reminded me of running the back dirt road in the cemetery. Holy shit that made me really miss running in Cle. Anyways made it out to the hill, the paused for a second to look at the stars, and the blood red moon resting on the edge of the valley. It was impressive. Very calming to be out there, looking at something so amazing... Glad I got out there. Ran back to campus then did a loop around. Ran down and back to Pratt each way just to add on some more. Really tried to push the pace today. Felt it at some points which was good.

Essentials: Stretch

Stretched in the living room while Catan was still battling out. Easy stretch today. Legs felt really good actually. I felt pretty strong overall.

Two years ago today was Regionals... One of the craziest races I have ever seen, and one of the most amazing team moments I have ever been a part of. Its good to remember that kinda stuff. That is why I write Running Logs, and I find it so important to log all this stuff. I write a lot, but its always so worth it. I could never forget all that.
