Monday around the Mystic

COVID- 19, “ The Rona Era”

It’s Monday. Next Monday I will be on a plane to Hawaii for state #50. I still can’t believe it’s around the corner. So I want to try to add some miles on my shoes before I go. There’s no strength training class today. That means I can go running. The Mystic River Reservation is a place I hadn’t been in a while. Today is a good day to visit.

I soon found out that part of the Mystic was closed due to construction. I had to recalculate my route. It started off cool but I soon realized I over dressed because I got hot quick. Too many layers. It was good to see the rowers in the water and the stalkers by the trees. My legs felt good but I felt a bit tired. Need to work on my food and hydration before I go. I debated with myself if I should run a 10k or 5k. I split the difference and ran 4 miles. I still want to take it easy since I had a pinch nerve on mother’s day weekend. My left leg is much better but I’m not 100% maybe 85%. I’m getting there.
