Great Weekend!

Well, I'm to report that I had an amazing weekend! And I was just hanging out at home....with my family. It's nice to feel no pressure to do anything. We had a lovely boat outing on Saturday afternoon, that left me relaxed and excited to take on my Sunday workout.
Sunday morning was really damp and muggy but fueled with a good attitude (and a GU), I willingly took on my morning run. It was nice to feel so good. Now, that the triathlon season is waning and school is starting, I find myself looking forward to a change. I love summer, but it's nice to see the change of seasons. I'm looking forward to the chill of Fall and for me, that means more running! I love to run when it's cold outside. The crisp air, the colorful foliage, the promise of football on the weekends. I can already smell the leaves burning!
I think I'm going to try for a late Fall half marathon. I'm not far from establishing a good base. I've spent my summer thinking more about cycling, so now I'm ready to shift focus.
If you're like me and prefer running in cooler temps, consider finding a local running race, any distance will do, and hone your road racing skills. Come Spring, you'll be glad you did!
