Enjoying Spring

Today was my first run since the Holy 10K. A bit creaky in the feet, but off I went this morning. I was in Carmel running on the Hagen-Burke and Monon Trails today. It was an ideal day. Sunny in the 60s, and a bit of a breeze. Yes my feet were still a bit stiff, but once I got going things went well.

It's so nice to see the colors coming for Spring. The green leaves are coming in, flowers are popping up. Nature has said goodbye to Winter, and hello warmer days. There are the days I like running at the gym, but there is nothing like being outside in the world, and seeing everything.

People on the trails were in good moods. Lots of moms and babies out there today. There were the occasional runners and bikers too.

Today's run was 4 miles. That's a good follow-up to the 10K last weekend. About to plan my next race, and it helps to be out in the world to get me head sorted on which one to do. I'd like to do one around the first of June. I know it will be warmer then, but I want to get a half marathon in before the heat of Summer gets here.

A good run, and a good day.
