After essentially no winter here in western New York State, Spring has also arrived early. Last night I ran in shorts and a t-shirt (of course in this modern era, t-shirt means a running "tech" shirt) under sunny skies and temperatures in the 60s. I ran 5.0 miles on trails, averaging 8:43/mile. This was a mini "comeback" run of sorts after missing 3 straight days due to illness. Hope to be back out there tonight for about 4 miles. I'll keep doing trails if it hasn't rained, and switch to roads when necessary. With these temperatures, I'm thinking about getting on the track to make sure I can break 6 in the mile before the track season gets formally underway. Of course, at our age, why are there "seasons?" We're not on teams anymore, or in school. Somehow, though, I still think of getting on the track during the Spring, and cross country in the Fall.
