8r4d Oh, thirty klicks on a #sundayrunday will be my last loooooong #run for a few weeks while we explore a bit more of the world beyond the #yeg #rivervalley … but it doesn’t mean we can’t still have a bit of local fun.

8r4d On this particular #sundayrunday the skies opened and we found ourselves #running 19k in the various waves of #rain and fluid #weather conditions as we wove thru the creek and looped along the trails. You can’t save your training for fair weather days or else you’d be hard pressed to find any days to train at all, and while we can run inside when the air is smoky (dangerously so) rain , as they say, is best avoided only when one is made of pure sugar and sweetness, a description that I’d not say applies to myself.

8r4dsfeets In the parking lot, as usual, for a #sundayrunday but the spitting rain was just a prelude to the downpour we’d eventually encounter about half way thru our #running adventure.
