Note: This was not an easy day to fit a workout in. The morning started with a light rain, so I decided to actually try to do the 20 mile Key Workout in the morning. But when I arrived at the boardwalk, the rain was coming down really heavy and the wind was actually howling. I was woefully underdressed for the run and decided to postpone the workout. With a busy day in other activities, I was happy to get in a 6 mile run in the evening when the weather was a tad better.
This was an eventful March weatherwise. We broke records in precipitation this month and a lot of the area is still flooded. This is on top of the major wind-cane that stormed through the area 2 weeks ago. The area is so bad that the NY Governor has asked the President to declare this area a disaster area.
PM Workout: 6 Mile Run
Course: Travis
Time: 54:26 (9:06 min/mile pace)
Weather: Heavy Rain, Moderate Wind, Flooding
This was a day to get really, REALLY wet. The flooding from the soaking rain today created lake-sized puddles everywhere. I was running through ankle-deep water in some cases. My legs were a little flat but loosened up midway through the run to keep the pace comfortable. After the run, the soaking wet clothes were immediately hung over the shower door to drip dry.
Rain should clear with temps in the 70s toward the end of the week. Good. I would love to see the sun again sometime in my lifetime.
