Running in Year 2023 (Goal 2023 km)

Saturday, August 14, 2010

Saturday's 30:1 (X6)

Woke up late and didn't begin the run until close to 9 AM today -- ouch! Opted not to run on the Martin Goodman Trail due to the hot sun and lack of shade. Went to the proven route of Lower Don River Trail -- lots or runners and bikers out there this morning. There were many instances of lack of shade here as well :-| Although it was hot, there was a breeze at times. Had to conserve the Gatorade and enjoyed a large Coke Zero from McDonalds + free refill. Not easy to run with a blazzing sun but there was clouds at the end of the run. 25.53 K; YTD = 1134.46 K.

Next Saturday is the Midsummer Night's 30 K Run. Supposed to have redsigned finisher's medal and a slight modification to the route. Will be my 3rd consecutive year; did 15 K, then 30 K, and this year 30 K. As race registrations have gone up, this one hasn't. Still $49 for early registration and I registered via snail-mail so I only paid $0.57, rather than register on-line and pay the on-line service fees.
