Today qualifies as a long run. I'm trying to avoid running in isolated areas, alone, in the dark. So, I went on a water search rather than going up the dark canyon where there has always been water. (Last time I ran that route, I was clobbered from behind by a biciclist.) Went to two parks, found 4 water fountains, but they were all turned off. I suppose that they don't want the pipes to freeze in the winter. But it wouldn't have frozen today. It's a beautiful day and it was 45 degrees while I was running.
Overall, I ran 15.45 miles in 2:27:48, for an average pace of 9:34 per mile. I'll take it if only for the milage total. |
