A Long Overdue Nony Run

I have missed running with Nony. We haven't run together since, like, September or something, a heck of a long time. She hates the cold (hard to believe but some people are like that...) But today was so nice again, and the coming days are supposed to very wintery. So we decided to make the most of it while we could.

I love where I run. The river is scenic and well traveled, and there are miles of paths that are well maintained. But I've never run the reservoir. What a beautiful place! I am so glad Nony invited me to go there, and I for sure will have to revisit it.

Because she hasn't been able to run much, we took it slow, with run-walks heavily weighted toward the walking part. But it felt great just the same. We just did a short circuit, twenty minutes out and then back. Perfect for site-seeing and catching up between friends.

Today's run:
Distance: 1.82 km. Time: 12:04. Average speed: 9.1 kph.
Rest distance: 2.66 km. Rest time: 28:00
Total distance: 4.48 km. Total time: 40:04

Weather: Cloudy and 10C. Just unbelieveable for February, and even more unbelieveable that we haven't broken any records these past couple of days. But according to the forecast, we are about to pay for it, when the highs later in the week will be no more than -21C. Go figure.

And Nony really likes those hi-tech toys
