Almost caught up on blog posts! Of course, once I do catch up, it might be easier if I just get back to posting a quick blurb each day or every few days. Let's see how that works out ...
Monday: 2
Lunchtime mowing of upper field on new WHS XC course. Field grew up too much during the summer; will have to remember to cut at least 1-2 times mid-summer next year. 1 mile run to field; 1 mile run back. Hope the WHS runners will appreciate this, but I already figure some will and won't.
Tuesday: 9
AM: 6 miles at 6AM at Duval with Matthew, on his last week of summer vacation from school. Fun running on the trails, with a rare cool morning of 59 degrees at start at Quaker Cemetery parking lot. Matthew suggested running this one and I was the one initially hesitant because it means leaving the house by 5:30am to try to get trails in and drive round-trip to SK before I had to get to work, but then when he suggested we leave at 5:15am so we're not rushed, how could I turn down such enthusiasm?
Tallies: One bloody fall (mine), one nice dog, one scary dog, NO deerflies!
PM: 3 miles back at Bradford Preserve. Wheel-measured course on my lunch break.
Wednesday: 6
Noanet Woodlands, Dover, MA. So much better without the deerflies! The runners and bikers are starting to return now.
Thursday: 0
Friday: 5
Bradford Preserve trails, incorporating both WHS XC course and Run for the Pumpkins 5K course.
Saturday: 5
Inaugural Wahaneeta 5k! Separate write-up to follow.
Sunday: 16
Longest run in a long time. A little humid, but not terrible. Matthew, Mike, and I ran the first 10 miles together on Surftown course, and then Mike and I finished up. Sore for the rest of the day.
Weekly mileage: 44
Weekly synopsis: The new WHS XC course is near to completion. The new Wahaneeta 5K was successful from a nobody got lost perspective, if not successful in numbers, and will somebody please tell Mr Summer that it's time for him to move on, along with his heat and humidity?
