Made it to a Sunday run!

The Park Forest Running and Pancake Club regularly meets on Saturdays and Sundays. Today it was cold, 14 degrees, I think, when I left the house. I over-dressed, perhaps, but I was warm enough, and got in my 33 minutes. I don’t know if I should record my HR, as my monitor said 44 bpm as I started out. I don’t think I’m in that good shape yet.

It was good to see some old friends again. Recently, I’ve only been catching up with the club at monthly meetings or while volunteering at races. I had been walking on my own. But, our club is for walkers as well as runners.

And Prez Fred brought me a nice little statue of the Hindu god Ganeesha for my World Religions classes. He just returned from India. Thanks, Fred!

It was good to see everyone, even if I couldn’t keep up with them. Looking forward to next Saturday and Sunday.

Almost forgot to write today…

…but I didn’t forget to run.

Ran this morning — or rather walked quickly and sometimes trotted — out at Yankee Woods at 8 a.m. First walk/run with the club in quite a while. I did meet with club members this summer at Chestnut a few times. But it felt good to get out today with everyone.

I was moving on the ice for about 37 minutes. Had a blast.

I’ll have even more fun when I can run long enough to say hello when everyone’s finished with their long runs.
