NYRR Run for the Parks, 4M, 4/18/2010

Posted on April 18, 2010 by | Leave a comment

This morning I ran one of my fastest races ever (my fastest 4M, though I have a faster 5M and 3M). I wasn’t trying to push my pace, but just went out relatively strong and was able to keep it up. I felt good throughout pretty much the whole race. I’m not sure how much I should credit the pre-race warm-up run, which was more than a mile, but that definitely worked out the kinks and is probably something worth trying again.

Morning Potomac Run, 4/10/2010

Posted on April 11, 2010 by | Leave a comment

I went for a really nice run yesterday morning, partly along the Potomac and then through other parts of DC.  I started at the M Street bridge over Rock Creek Pkwy and headed south and east along the river. I briefly crossed into Virginia over the Arlington Memorial Bridge (behind the Lincoln Memorial) and then continued past Lincoln onto the Mall. I looped around the Washington Memorial and headed up towards the White House. I ran past the White House and then up Pennsylvania Avenue, back to where we were staying. It was the morning of the Cherry Blossom festival and parade, but luckily I was out before the parade so I could cross over Constitution Avenue without trouble.

Michal and I went for a nice easy run along the Bergen County bike path. We mixed in some walking with the run, but it was a nice day and some good exercise.
