Notes
I had a good run today. The roads were icy with slushy grounds but it was so beautiful to get out there. I needed this run more than anything and got lost in the beauty of the universe. When running on Icy / snowy grounds I have now a strong memory of Franc running with me due to the recent experiences in the snow. It was so strange but at certain points of my run it almost felt as if he was either in front of me or behind me somewhere. But it was just an illusion and a strong memory. The brain and soul are so powerful. Loreena's songs came on in this white beautiful scenery and then MJ's songs. It was funny but when I was doing the fast strides his song came on about (Keep it moving) which made me smile inside. The timing and lyrics of the song were so spooky!
Although legs were not 100% to start with they behaved in the end and made my run pleasurable.
I was well warmed up when at 6th mile point decided to do strides. I did 12 X 40 sec with 40 sec recovery in between. My last four were the fastest and most comfortable (good sign). Once again Strides made my run more fun and a game. What a wonderful way to finish a run. I do love the feeling when the body allows me to run fast.
