W8R2 - back to old route, much better than last run.

Thanks for the words of advice from those who also found changing their route to be counterproductive. With the longer running times I thought running on pavement might make it a bit easier - wrong !

Went back to running the dirt/gravel road round the local camp ground & baseball diamonds.The route is wonderfully quiet at this time of year so no need to worry about looking good. Running round the village with the prospect of meeting someone/passing traffic was definitely not helpful.

Or could it have been the Wagon Wheel I scoffed before setting off fuelled me up?

Snow due in on Friday, my W8R3 day - hopefully the weather will hold off til I've finished the programme.

I can't wait until the snow comes! I LOVE snow! I know you get it much deeper and colder in Canada but it must be a glorious place to be running round!

You are almost there. GOOD LUCK for your next week and Graduation!
