Early Morning on the Monon

I told Mark last night that I had a goal of running four days this week, and his job was to make sure I ran on day one - this morning. The alarm woke me 5:30 this morning. Mark told me to look out the window to check for rain. There was none so out I went.

The weather was MUGGY!!! Running out there was like running with a wet rag over my face. Still the morning was quiet and beautiful. Mostly bikers were on the path, but there was the occasional running nodding hello to me as we would pass.

My favorite moments on the run were listening to the honking geese, running over the water on the bridges, and running through an area which looks like I am running through the runs.

So how was the run? I have run faster. I completed 3.2 miles. The thing I struggle with these days is that I am not in great shape and my running and working is erratic while I develop a regular schedule. This is why I created the goal to run four days this week. Today was day one - in the books. Three runs to go.
