Great time at Scioto Trail Race Series #2 this morning. Wanted to pick up the pace but what I gained on first lap I gave back on the second. Still farthest I have run on any surface except 2 marathons. 🏃
Not sure how many warm evening runs are left this year. Warm if windy last night for local club run but enjoyed still running in t-shirt and shorts. 22 miles on Saturday. 🏃
Currently reading: In the Heat of the Night by John Ball 📚 // picked this up a library sale
Beautiful fall evening for run club. 🏃needed lights but skyline was pretty.
Signed up for a couple gravel races. Two races came with a pair of Solomon Aero Glide 3 GRVL shoes. Race #1 was 10/25 & roughly 11 miles (photo). Saturday is #2 and 22+ miles. Looking forward to it.
