Cobbs Hill Redux

Run 1: 4.1 miles in :29:00-ish min. @ 7:00 a.m.
Run 2: 2.0 miles in :30:00 min. @ 7:30 p.m.

Weather: Cloudy, 66°F.
Pace: 7:04 min./per mile avg.

Reportedly, the heat is going to be rising, so our Fall-like August will be drawing to a close and Summer returning for these last ten days of recess. This morning’s run took a similar path as yesterday’s with the noticeable addition of another repeat on Cobbs Hill, as well as, a second loop of the reservoir.

The changing weather conditions were immediately apparent in the thickness of the air and the ease with which I began sweating… profusely!

There will be a fairly challenging running event this evening at Cobbs Hill, one that I had hoped to participate in, but I am planning on participating in a race on Sunday and would rather not over extend myself just yet and risk injury, plus I will be running with my wife this evening… barring a rain storm! Tomorrow is a scheduled “recovery day,” though I hope to be able to get back on my bicycle, I cross-training alternative I enjoy, but for some reason have not engaged in for a few weeks.

Breathe in, breathe out... YOU AND I ARE ALIVE!
