Easy spring run

Finally. The sun was out this afternoon and temperatures rose above 60F today. That made it a perfect afternoon for a run, and what better way to celebrate than to run my very favorite easy day run - the 3.6 mile Davis run. As I was running today, it was hard to imagine that just 3 days ago it was snowing like mad and freezing cold. But my legs sure noticed. I couldn't believe when I clicked my watch at the end of the run and noticed that I had run 4 minutes faster than Monday. I guess I really was slipping and sliding on the snow.

It really felt good to be running back at a faster pace (7:10/mile). I hope the forecast is correct and it stays warm through the weekend.
