It's been days of rain and wind which means no runs! Boo! While we were experiencing record lows last November, we're experiencing record highs this November. Crazy weather.
We were able to run this evening, even though it was getting dark. I rushed around as quick as I could after work. Henri waited patiently, if you consider laying in the middle of the floor with his head resting on his paws and wearing a mopey face and letting an occasional sigh or whine escape from his throat, "patient".
Many things contributed to a high speed run tonight:
- 3 days off
- 60 degree weather
- High speed winds at our back for much of mile 1
- 2 skateboarders on the sidewalk behind us in the park for a portion of mile 2
- The wind cooling us down because it's 60 degrees out and we were running fast - that just felt good!
- A Beagle on his run for the first half of mile 3, howling like he was chasing some game
- We'd already run most of the run at higher speeds - finish strong!
All in all, it just felt good to run. I don't want to go back to only running a few days a week because of cold weather!
The Beagle has made me slightly nervous for Henri's run on Saturday. We will see how it goes. At least our outfits are going to be awesome...if I can get back to making them. Gotta go!
