Really, it is spring. At least that's what we're told, right? Nevermind it's 39 degrees at 9:28 a.m. and predicted to be 27 degrees tonight. Cover those bedding plants; there's a freeze warning for the valley. Nevertheless, look in the picture I just took, there you can see for yourself; the Bradford Pears are blooming and the Redbud trees are budding.
As I write this blog posting my 3rd daughter and her BFF running buddy are about to arrive at the bottom of a 2mile uphill run. That's running 2 miles straight up and then, of course, the 2 miles down. Beautiful day to run and a beautiful area to run through - FLOWERING nursery stock with blooming this and that all over. GLORIOUS!
In the springtime, runners runs are spendor heightened by passing scenes of new life bursting all around. But, a 2mile uphill grade of at about a 35 degree angle - Hey, It's marathoners training. Did I say, "I don't do marathons?" My 3 hills this morning were considerably shorter and not near so high.
I admit to thinking about a half marathon this summer though...Hmmmmm...maybe i will try it.
Happy Running!
