Almost warm

I just finished a short but fine bike ride in low 70s. In the morning, however, the temperature was ~33. Thus, running was pretty refreshing experience compared to the evening's biking. In all, summer is almost here. Tomorrow the plan is to run yet another steady state 6 miler, this time on the paths. It will be moderated by HRM.

On Sunday I might go and face my demons by running a 10k race. The minimum goal is match the average pace of my last shorter race.

[edit:] Dammit it was different to run in warm weather. It was either the weather, dead legs from yesterday's bike ride, running on paths or just my shape that punched me in the nuts today. Anyway, one more steady state saved in the bank. In your face!

As I have already mentioned, the current running conditions are a big freaking joke. I did only 14 miles and still got aches in lower back, upper thighs and of course in my jaws since I was cursing the whole way. During the last 2 km I chose to run on the street among cars (there was like 3 cars driving at that time) and thereafter the pace dropped from (ice-moderated) 7.40s to 6.55s (with grip). But anyhow the sunrise was nice. I really like to be on the road that early.

Weekly mileage (6 days, I have Mondays off) was 49. That's just fine. When the roads are again open, I'll increase the mileage up to 60-70 miles.
