Goose Music

Pre-Run

Walked out of the school building to sunshine and really mild temps in the mid 60s this afternoon. Couldn't wait to get my run on! Saw another regular Jug Bay visitor in the parking area as I made like Clark Kent switching from work clothes to my running duds. Wondered how many others would show on this glorious day...

Course

...up the camp hill  and down the orange trail over to Merkle...took the touring road up to the Goose Music turnaround for an out and back...

The Run

...first two miles were slower over 10min/mile pace but found another gear and pumped out three miles at more of a training pace...

Wildlife

...blue heron took off in flight as I crossed the merkle bridge as did two or three ducks...the geese weren't as plentiful in the fields, but I spotted many flocks in flight...and they were noisy about it!

Nuts & Bolts

...some tightness in left quad...noticed my new salomon shoes didn't feel quite as comfortable as my first run in them last week...

Recovery Beer

Second Wind...a nice pale ale picked up in North Carolina recently

Random Run Note

Goose Music in honor of the hill where I did a turnaround as well as the racket the live ones were causing in flight...as I was dryingoff post run I did hear what I thought to be gun shots in the distance...hope all the geese made a clean getaway!
