Greetings! Spring weather worked as a great incentive to rack up more miles in the last two months than the previous two. I've been in a rut for much too long of primarily exercising indoors. Truthfully the outdoor hiatus helped me to appreciate the many benefits of running, mostly experiencing the incredible change of seasons. I'm fortunate not to be adversely impacted by pollen. Thus, being outside through the spring has been glorious, even when jogging along multi-lane divided state roads.
Other than enjoying nature I've been increasing mileage. I even did a couple of speed workouts. Those reminded me how intense I was about running in the Atlanta Track Club Grand Prix series during the early 2000s. I regularly participated in around twenty races collecting points based on finishing time in age categories. I've lightened up a bit over the years. Of course, some argue exercising every single day is not light by any measure.
At any rate, I'm having fun. I fully recognize the appeal of variety. I expect to do a lot running through the fall. We'll see what happens after that time.
Change has advantages. Run.
Tom
