Easy run

I didn't have a fartlek run on my schedule today like I've had the last 3 Tuesdays and like I have next Tuesday. I just had an easy run. But I was somewhat surprised when I looked at me splits to realize that it had turned into an unintentional progression run. I never ran very fast, though.

I've started again. Now what?

How about TOU? :-)

Nice run! Your weather looks nice for a morning run :-)

Well Jefferey, I'm thinking a bit about TOU, but my other alternative is the ADT marathon, which is not quite two weeks before TOU. The advantage of ADT over TOU is that it's here in Colorado and I could sleep in my own bed the night before and I wouldn't have to pay for travel. Can you talk me into TOU?

Yes, QP, we have been having great running weather in the mornings lately. It can be either too hot or too cold or too rainy or too windy later in the day, but the mornings have been great.

TOU is faster ... but the sleeping in your own bed the night before can't be overlooked.

I am kind of thinking about TOU 1/2 myself, but things are all up in the air right now.

I will let you know when I get to Colorado, it is likely I will be arriving and leaving late, so breakfast/lunch or morning run might be possible. Have a good week cinc

I would love to see you Bonnie. Give me a call. Do you still have my number?

From Bonnie on Tue, May 31, 2011 at 15:47:54 from 64.119.33.134

I don't think I have your number Carolyn, it was on my old phone (that was stolen) - you haven't gotten any calls from my old phone have you? I miss that phone ;-). I am not sure when I will be out there, but I will definitely let you know.

From RAD on Tue, May 31, 2011 at 15:49:10 from 98.202.17.113

I can talk you into TOU...I'll be there! :) Totally worth one night out of your bed - maybe even two. I will be going up with the lady from my ward that is running it as her first full. My initial thought is that she will most likely get a room with her husband, and not wanting to be a 3rd wheel - awkward! I would love someone to split a room with! So....?

Oh, excellent run today! Your AP's are dropping quite steadily.

From Carolyn in Colorado on Tue, May 31, 2011 at 15:53:57 from 198.241.174.15

I think I may have to hold off on the TOU vs ADT decision for a month or so until I know better whether finances will allow me to travel in September.

Love the unintentional progression run. And yes, your AP's are getting progressively faster.
