Distance: 6.1m, loop of Central Park
Time & Date: July 25, 6.30pm
Temp: 82 degrees
I met up with my colleagues from Team Continuum for the weekly run. There were only five of us there, but no super runners, so it was cool. We took off at a nice slow pace. While I normally prefer morning running, the park is so different at night. Cars for a start, plus tons of tourists. People going to Summer Stage or Shakespeare in the Park. So it was kind of cool to take it slow and watch everything happening. Plus it was still quite warm, though not humid. Anyway, with good company and an easy pace, the run went well. Before I knew it we were back at the start. We'd done a 9.22 pace. Not bad considering how easy we took it.
Followed up this morning with a few miles on the bike, which was good to stretch the muscles. 3 miles tomorrow then a couple of days off as I have to delay my Sunday run until Monday this week.
In the meantime, a big shout out to our head coach, John Hirsch who is representing the USA at the ITU Long Distance Triathlon World Championships this weekend. He is a testament to dedication and hard work. If he doesn't win, it won't be for lack of trying and isn't that all we can ever say. Good luck, John....kill it!!!
