8r4d It’s never really #christmas until the #runcrew holiday lights #walk in Summerside

8r4d In mid October the temperatures are starting to fall as fast as the leaves from the trees, but the trails are just clear enough to tease out one last pre-winter run. #running #runcrew #autumn

8r4d Our regular Thursday #runcrew #running adventure was diverted from our usual Mill Creek routine and instead we did a chilly six through Blackmud Creek as the #autumn #sunset hit some groovy vibes.

8r4d So, our regular Sunday morning #runcrew #running adventure was usurped by a turn through another charity race, this time dropping in on the breast cancer fundraiser Run for the Cure where about 4000 participants fun runned through a south-central #yeg neighbourhood. We parked at a cafe about 4k away and ran there and back for the 5k race, which gave us a little over 12 klicks on the day and a well deserved coffee meetup afterwards.

8r4d With race season pretty much closed up for another year (at least for most of us) our #running adventures have resumed their normal short + sweet + coffee pattern. #summer it’s almost over… sigh. Today was a guys #runcrew s all the ladies seemed to be on vacation. That just means we talked more politics and told fart jokes than usual.

8r4d While most of the #runcrew was off in the mountains sweeping up the last couple legs of Sinister 7, a few of us stayed behind for some Sunday #running in the #rain followed by the regular coffee meetup.

8r4d Sunday Runday and while most of the #runcrew was off doing a variety of races, a few of us tackled the regular #running routine (and day 26 of my streak) with a wandering 8k while trying to avoid the local race that was happening all around us and that we kept tripping over. We even saw SH zip by on the way to his first place finish in the 10k.

8r4d Our usual Thursday meetup for the #runcrew also marked day 16 of my #running streak. It had rained pretty hard all day but cleared up for a few hours and just long enough for the sidewalks and paths to dry... well mostly. I’m getting darn bagged doing this daily churn of kilometres tho and we had a good chat this evening on the value of a rest day to a proper training plan. Streaks are fun and all, and of course I’m gonna keep it going for a bit more, but anyone who runs daily every day and always has something in their mettle that keeps it going longer than most can.

8r4d Half May and I’m officially fifteen days down on my #running streak. This evening we clashed our #runcrew with #runclub and raced the threatening rain with a speedy right klicks. Somehow I managed yet another day even though my legs are feeling the daily pound of the asphalt. That said, we broke off and ran a bit of parallel trail for kicks.
