The roads were for the most part all cleared up tonight for my 5 miler. A few patches of black ice, but I was able to spot them in advance. The sidewalks were still covered with snow and ice, though, so I couldn’t run from my house to downtown, so instead I drove downtown and headed out from there. I tackled two big hills early in the run, and then settled in for a relatively easy run. The two big hills were within the first two miles, and even though this is the part of the run that typically gives me the most trouble until I get good and warmed up, the hills, though steep and long, didn’t give me too much trouble. BTW, the standard deviation for tonights 5 miler was 97.084 (for those still keeping count at home). It’s almost like I’m looking to challenge myself everytime out with larger and longer hills (that’s good, right?)….makes things interesting anyway. I’ve got 5 more hills coming out of downtown frankfort that I still need to tackle before the marathon….these are the real beasts, though.
