Notes
Cold and rainy this morning so it took me a long time to decide to go out. I really wasn't up for it after how poorly my last run went (my enthusiasm is so low these days because of my back) but dragged my sorry self out the door when the rain finally stopped.
This is a hard run to get excited about as the first 3 miles or so are all uphill. It was as hard as I was guessing it would be outbound but I felt pretty nice on the downhill return. I will note that the weather was GORGEOUS and I am sure this helped lift my mood in regards to my running. Sunny and windy and lovely after the rain. In several places leaves rained down on me and it reminded me of the couple of beautiful runs I did in Vermont. Good to feel good.
