#garunning

Taking two and a half hours to cover less than eight miles is humbling, though in my defense the half mile of elevation gain plus climbing over rocks, trees and roots should be factored in. In many places I couldn’t keep heart rate in my training zone as I had to pick my way carefully to keep from crashing. But an awesome morning for a jaunt through the north Georgia mountains.

I would have been running the annual Atlanta Track Club Peachtree Road Race today if not for COVID-19. Instead my brother and I ran Sawnee Mountain and Indian Seats. Happy Fourth!

I think this is the slowest I’ve ever run this loop. Is running slow-to-be-fast really going to work for me? Race next Saturday may give me a clue.

I picked up several potential flat tires today on my run.

45°F light rain, dark, nice way to start the week.
