Four point five miles with four X eight hundred @ Here I Come to Get You John Tully FiveK (one quarter recovery). Perfect morning for seven oh two thirteen, there was a fiver up front when we started the run. Amazing.
We’re fortunate to live within minutes of the four major metropolitan areas. Wahoo, Waterloo, Venice, and Omaha. And one of my very favorite training circles, El Parque Estado Dos Rios. That’s where we nailed the eight hundreds this morning.
I didn’t burn down the house, the barn, the garage, the studio, or the neighbors yesterday. I can see where fire is going to be a useful tool with so many trees on the acreage. Looking at wood burning stoves, that will be the first enhancement to the house. Hopefully in time for Old Man Winter.
We’ve installed rain barrels beneath our downspouts. The Good Stuff for our garden.
A steady diet of kale, collard greens, and parsley inspires today’s column title.
I’m still and always interested in the dynamics of the local running scene. Especially on the Competitive side. Thus it is with interest that I note Jason Zakaras now running under the blue and yellow kit of the Lincoln Running Co. Racing Team. Jason has ran very well this year, dropping his marathon pr to 2:39:23 at Grandma’s. Best of luck in the new digs Jason.
I can’t think of anything more comfortable than a rocker and a warm fire on a chilly July morning.
