Long Run @ the Lakes 1:39:46

Sunday, April 6, 2008

This morning Juice and I met Kev, Chops, Glenn, Slaw and Blake at the lakes. We set out at an easy pace going clock-wise for a change. By the time we got to the back section of the lakes, Kev and I were on our own, running at a steady clip but very relaxed as we yakked about training and nutrition (always a great topic with Kev) clocking 45:06 for the first loop. Chops joined us as we started loop #2. We moved into a faster pace half-way around for this one and were really moving in the last few kms finishing in 41:29. We did an easy out and back and then met the rest of the group in the p-lot. It’s nice that it’s warm enough now to stand and talk outside after a run instead of making a mad dash to the warmth of our cars.

Juice and I hooked up with Don-Don for brunch at Avalon and got caught up on his happenings. We hung out for a bit downtown and then went home and spent a quiet nigt in and watched the dvd that O’Cal gave me yesterday. What a riot to see him racing in his early 20′s with all these big shots…he was incredibly smooth and speedy…wow. He also updated my training blog for the week…Mercy me!
