Longer run day today. Ended up doing about 70 minutes of running and 30 minutes or so of walking/hiking before hand. Took the dog with me. Tough running with him on a leash (too much energy and throws my heart rate all out of whack). So we walked out the trails, let him lose and off we went.
Great run as this trail is pretty low traffic. Met a few other dogs and their owners but mostly just the two of us. I struggling to stay in a lower Heart Rate, he not giving a damn and running 85% the whole time. Running circles around me.
So wish I had the stamina of Streatley, maybe… He does peeter out towards the end when it's back on the leash time to head home. Ends up hanging off my heals looking at me like "when we getting home, I went too hard again".
Rest of the day was pretty relaxing. Went to get my coffee, read a few articles in the latest edition of Outside. Worked a bit on Karnazes web site and then on trifuel. Took a nap, played more with the dog and now about to cook up some soup for dinner.
Weather was great for the run this morning, but it's a bit windy and cold now.
Probably hang out on the internet and read this evening. I'm starting to crave the TV again. Could use some 60 Minutes.
