Scary Trestle/Nordeast

December 22, 2009 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: almost 30, lots of brown snow

Comments:
Up early to Anytime. Got in a lift and circuits, then taught mom some weights.

A couple errands in RF, then shopping: REI and Rosedale with BOOTS. Then met Behrs at THE PIO for a run.

For old tyme's sake, we ran Scary Trestle (Boom Island), then north along Marshall to Lowry...only to find the bridge didn't exist! Oops. Then back on University to Broadway, and across to the River Trail.

FOoting overall was GARBAGE: even on the river road it was shitty. Going up/over the Broadway Bridge was maybe some of the worst footing ever (for that depth, at least).

About 2/3s through I realized I hadn't consumed ANY WATER ALL DAY: some tea and some Coke Zero. Oops. Felt like SHIT the last 3 miles.

80 minutes total, for sure 11. I'll have to check the records to determine the last time K and I have run that long together.

Post-run chow at Mesa Pizza. THE BOMB.
