My wakeup heart rate was 58, and I felt stronger when I went running. I ran about 1/4 mile with a run/walk of 60/25 seconds. Then I changed to 60/30 and then to 60/35 and finished my run with that ratio. I did take a couple of short rest-breaks. One guy asked me, as he ran past, if I were OK. I said, "Yes, just taking a rest break". The temperature was 84 (F) when I left home and 81 when I returned. I think Spring is gone and summer is here.... This warm weather is not good. It may melt the snow in the mountains and cause flooding in the valleys and then a drought in the summer.
I ran in the late afternoon as the sun was going down. Due to the
late hour, there was a lot of shade on the trail, and that felt good.
There was a slight south breeze blowing, which helped cool me and didn't
offer much opposition to my running. A lot of people were on the trail
while I was there, including a couple of kids on skateboards.
