Midday Meditation
I ran at 11AM today. Its Tuesday. That’s not normal. It was nice though. I had a late meeting today so I decided I would take a break in the middle of the day to get my run in. I loved it! It was super nice for multiple reasons.
I didn’t have to run in the scorching heat….it was only 77°F
I got my run done early so I wasn’t trying to squeeze it in around the same time that dinner is or the kids are being picked up.
I got the peace of mind that my run was already complete early on.
It broke up my day and gave me some relaxation from work.
Now this may not work everyday but it certainly was a nice change of pace. No pun there…..I still ran the same speed. I will try to do this when I can.
Another easy 8 miler today. Nothing fancy. No workouts this weeks. I had a race scheduled for August 9th and that is what my training is based upon right now. However…..I am pretty sure I am not doing that race. Even if it isn’t cancelled. I don’t think I’m ready to line up with 100 other people at the start of a race. Granted…..trail racing is an isolated sport for the most part once you get going. The start, finish and aide stations are typically filled with people. It isn’t time for that yet. Instead I am still on track for the idea……I just still need to inform my coach. Oops.
