Run 11 - planning

What do you think of this run?

Rideau Trail - Section 1

Run 10 - Almost 9.4K (2K of uphill)

We set out this moring fueled by last night's steak and sweet potatos. Cool, humid and grey. No complaining body parts until the last downhill section.

All in all, a great run.

Ottawa River and Blair hill loop

run 7

Wash-out is the only way to describe the run today. Every time I looked outside it was pouring rain or a thunderstorm was going by. Instead of a long run, went to the National Gallery to see the "Pop Life" exhibition (http://www.gallery.ca/english/584.htm#exhib2848).

By the end of the day I had done 5 loads of laundry and a 25 minute treadmill run.
