A Brief Look at Spring

This town is so weird, weather-wise. The last two days have been clear and warm, up to 20C and warmer. Patios were open yesterday afternoon. Yesterday I did an early November run in shorts and tee. Back to a more normal looking day today though, everything frosty and the mountains are white again.

My last run before yesterday was almost two weeks ago, a Sunday long run. That one was in thick fog. No visibility on the bluff and while it was better down by the river, the downtown skyline was lost in the mists above 12 or 15 stories or so. Love running in those conditions cuz the fog seems to absorb sound and makes things look magical and mysterious. Apparently lots of others feel that way too, as the river paths were busy.

The run way back on Oct 24th:
Distance: 16.95 Time: 1:36:11
Average speed: 5:40 min/km. (10.57 kph)
Rest distance: 0.94 km. Rest time: 10:00.
Total distance: 17.89 km. Total time: 1:46:11
Shoes: New Balance 769 (Yellow 2).
