I'm planning to run the Prickly Pear 50K trail run this March and need those long runs. I simply did not want to run this morning. Perhaps the short 4 miler yesterday that taxed my lungs and lungs or the stiff west wind and 25 f temp.
After a bit of cajoling from my wife, I dressed and started the two hour trot. I wanted to turn a back after the first 1/2 mile but something my wife said pushed me. She told me in not so many words that every day can't be a perfect day to run so just go run. I don't like running in wind.
Buno Road runs west away from home so went west into the strong west wind for about 4 1/2 miles then north among the Metro Park bridle trail for a mile and back. It turned out to be a good although a slow run. The wind was awful cold going out but helpful on the return. Brush was on the bridle trail from a gas line clearing operation so I cleared it. Figured that us runners should help where we can. Overall a good run.
