It was nice to finally feel like a real runner again after a week-plus of battling a cold. I have @cucb #cherryblossomtenmiler in 3 days, and now that all the buildup and training have been interrupted by injury and illness, I know Sunday’s not going to be the big day I originally had hoped for. But I’ll be out there and if nothing else will get some solid training miles in. #northfacedctrailhalf is only 3 weeks away and there’s plenty of time to get my groove back for that. Anyway, it was a #fartlek workout today, 8 x 1 minute at “5k or faster” pace. I used my @endasportswear Iten, my new favorite shoe for going fast. It felt hard for my rusty legs, not surprisingly, yet also good to finally be airing it out again. And can we put some of this weather in a box so I can pull it out of the closet and use it sometime when it’s 90° and humid, or 33° and freezing rain? #runblr #fitblr #springrunning #springracingseason #masterstrackathlete #endaiten (at Mantua, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv2BT3phFk5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hdxy2fso95xv
