Easter Sunday Run

After a big night of hoops , a Butler win , one more beverage than probably needed this morning's run was put off until after church.

11am and the sunny , wind and humidity are here, and out to the River Trail. Being 11pm on Easter and sun , no way to get on the golf course path without receiving a beating from golfers. I guess the can use the wonderful running path to drive there buggies on , so they don't have to walk and loose the extra 75 pounds attached to them.

At least walk the course, and get some exercise.

Oh Running, so Robin ran the first 3.5 miles with me as all the pools in central Indiana are closed today and I will not fire ours up until May.

The girl still has it when it comes to running, the last time she ran was first week in January, the started her swim training for short course nationals and the masters state meet last week. Now that's done and her training will change to the National 10K open water Championships in July, and running 2-3 times a week is in the plans.

For me, it was fun to run with her again and as we passed the car after the first 3.5 she drove home and I continued a weaving trek back home.

All in all it was good, pretty humid and windy but now that I have NYC Marathon on the schedule , marathon training schedule is on the calender. It is a couple months early but I will build slower than the old days and it should work as long as the plan is followed.

Looks as weather will jump around a while from great to hot to cool, but snow is DONE!

10 miles 1:25, weekend run will increase 10 min for 3 weeks , 4th week reduce 15, then repeat thur 2:30 runs. As in my training when I was a decent runner,, that will give me 8 , 20 milers leading to NYC. Always worked before !
