today's schedule workout: 17 miles, easy pace
actual:
Sunday swim clinic saw me putting about 1200-1500 meters on the odometer first thing. Then I got out of the water, changed, ate a little bit of trail mix and started running.
mileage: 17.3miles
route: Richardson's Bay to Honolii gulch and back again. fairly flat with several very moderate and tiny climbs. Honolii gulch had some down and back up again, but mercifully it was almost all in the shade
time: 2hours 35minutes
pace: 155/17.3 = 8.95minutes/mile = 8:57/mile
pain: moved around in my legs. most persistent was left knee IT band area and left calf upper central just below the knee. feet were pretty cranky by the last 3/4 mile.
weather: sunny and awesome. 80's. Apparently it dumped rain on Richardson's for a few minutes while I was out running.
amusing moments: saw Jake Bierman of Bierman home inspections as I crossed the singing bridge on my homeward leg (he is in my business networking group). Ran into Leslie and Emma Rose just as I was 50 yards from the Richardson's parking lot. They were headed to a birthday party. Leslie said to me, "STOP RUNNING! Go swimming! It's HOT!" She cracked me up. Also ran into Erin on the beach after my run. Or rather I swam briefly, began stuffing my face with bananas, apples and trail mix and noticed Erin sitting about 25 yards away talking to someone. As I finished eating she went in for a swim so I followed her out and swam underwater until I was near her and said, "Boo!" It turns out she is also a runner so we may schedule a few mutual runs in the coming week or two.
Oh yeah. They closed A Bay yesterday afternoon an hour or two after I had my swim there. Apparently the sharks got bored at Hapuna and wanted to see if there was anyone to be eaten at A Bay. Happily I was miles away by then.
