As I sit here eating my burritto (don't worry, it's one of those Amy's Organic brand bean and rice vegetarian chock full o' protein and goodness burrittos), I can't help but wonder...Where have all the runners gone??? I have just returned from a run along the brand new extension to Belleville's waterfront trail through Zwicks park and I passed a total of 4 people (1 walker and 3 other runners), that's it!!! Now I do realize it's 8 degrees C (46F for you yanks and old peeps who haven't converted yet...this comming from the guy who reports his running distance in miles). Anyhow, it's a little brisk, but the sun is shinning, there's no wind, and compared to the weather we've had recently around here (tons o rain) it's a pretty freakin' awesome day, but no one is taking advantage of the trails we have at our disposal. Come on Belleville...get off your lazy asses and take a walk, run, bike ride...at least take the dog out for a piss...this weather isn't going to last long.
Okay...now that I've got that off my chest, here's the deets of today's beautiful outdoor workout...
Total = approx. 5 miles (8 km)
Warmup = .75 mile (1.2 km)
Run = 3.5 miles (5.6 km)
Cooldown = .75 mile (1.2 km)
It felt great!!! Here's some memorable tunes from my playlist for today...
Beck - Nausea
Billy Talent - Red Flag, This is How it Goes, Try Honesty
Ludicris - Roll Out
k-os - Sunday Morning, Born to Run, some other tracks from the new disc I can't remember the name of
Thom Yorke - Harrowdown Hill
Hard-Fi - Hard to Beat
Mobile - Out of my Head
Until next time...get outside!!!
