Late again with my training post!    From last Friday, here is my report on the Great Training for the Marathon Adventure, training day 3.  (Day 4 has just been completed a few minutes ago, but more on that tomorrow!)

I have to say, I’ve been lucking out with weather on my running days so far.  And also, since I’m working at home right now, I don’t have to wait until darkness to run which makes it much easier, both for running and taking pictures.  It was only a 4K jaunt (run 1 min, walk 1.5 min for 30 min + warm up and cool down), but it felt good, especially to get my first week of training done.

Here is some scenery from the final leg of the run.

The path up to the main road.

Looking back

On the way home – some Christmas spirit.

I was going to post this yesterday, but got caught up with things like work.  Ah well.  So, a day late, here is my report on the Great Training for the Marathon Adventure, training day 2, which was Wednesday.  (I have also now finished day 3, but I’ll talk about that tomorrow.  Don’t want to do too much in one day!)

Not much to report on.  I ran one more interval on day 2 (7 intervals alternating 1 minute of running, and 1.5 minutes of running with a 5 minute warm-up and a 5 minute cool-down), so a few more minutes and a little farther.

I started by heading to the water.

Then up the path to the park at just past the halfway mark.

And here I am going through the park…

A peacock.

Another peacock…

And an ostentation of peacocks (you like that one???)

Then back up Simcoe towards home with some flowers and artsy shots.
