Hope everyone is doing well my friends! It was a really long week & my Friday is finally here! After all the dreariness of the winter weather here in upstate NY it was a breath of fresh air the last two days to have temperatures above 35 degrees.
Ran a decent step back run yesterday, about 7.2 miles. It was one of those amazing runs where you start out in a bad mood. But by the end are happy to still be able to be running & enjoying life! Very healing!
Today's run was short, only one mile. But the weather was even warmer in the mid fifties. I got home from work & grabbed the little man. He wanted to go running this year & today was the perfect day to get out there.
We headed out with sunshine in the sky. Felt really darn good! I decided that we'd hit the trail near our house a little bit. We started out & I must admit I was a little nervous. I'm ok with me playing chicken with some of the crazy drivers in my town. But my son's another story. We made it to the trail entrance after crossing under a bridge that has a very narrow two lane road underneath. Ry has even followed suit with me, we have dubbed it the "death bridge". Not enough room for two cars & a runner!
The run was incredible! One of those special father & son moments. We passed another runner with her dog. We stopped briefly & chatted her up. As we ran away Ry asked how I knew her. I explained that I didn't. Runners are just more friendly than regular people! Snapped this pic about halfway. Little man made us take some breaks. But we kicked butt! He even managed to keep pace with me through most of it!
Good times that I totally enjoyed! Looking forward to many more to come!
Run for your life my friends!
