AM Workout: 8 mile run - easy pace
Course: Victory Blvd. East (moderately hilly)
Time 1:18:50 (9:51 min/mile pace)
Temperature: 24F
Weather - Clear, little wind
Can you say "black ice" three times?
I must have muttered it a lot more than three times on this run, and usually preceded by an expletive, like "oh sh-t, black ice."
The stuff was everywhere. On the roads, on the sidewalks; you name it, it was covered. I had to mind every step on this run because it got pretty scary at times, especially with the heavy Staten Island traffic. But since safety was a concern, if I had to stop to let a car through, then so be it. I'd rather wait a little than be a pancake on the side of the road.
Of course, this implies that it got cold again. This winter is really wearing on me now and I long for the warmth again.
