Last I posted here mercury was shooting for the sky. The temperature has gone down, in Gainesville and most of the US, there is a cool breeze in the evening and sun has started going down before 9pm.
I have been out running almost regularly for the past 4 weeks. There is a local half marathon at Hawthorne trail in mid-November. As tempted as I am to do the run, I think my first half marathon needs to be pushed to early next year. If I set the Hawthorne half as my target, I will go all out preparing for it. Between research and a billion other hobbies, I have decided to take things easy. So without pushing myself too hard, right now I am enjoying the runs. I am running 3 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and anywhere between 4-7 on Saturday morning at Hawthorne. So far the going has been good - I am injury free, running long distances and not feeling burnt out at the end of the run.
Here is the proof
