Toronto Weekend Remembered

That was a really great weekend in Toronto. It’s always so nice to be able to run in another city. It worked out really well that I was close to the Don Valley recreation trails. There was so much more I could have explored.

Although the weekend was quick I still managed to allow myself to enjoy my runs and not to rush them. So often runs are fit into a day but fortunately I gave my self permission to take the time and enjoy the runs. Now if I could only have remembered to where a hat on Saturday.

Tonight I was at the Running Room group leading with the Learn to Runs. A few of them were really pushing themselves especially on the hills. They’ll settle down more as the minutes stretch on. The group is well balanced this round which is nice to see.

This week I need to really focus on making sure I get more sleep. Notice I didn’t say enough sleep. Baby steps. I felt sluggish at work most of the day.

The other thing I need to do this week is stretch the calf muscles every day. I could feel the top of my feet and my left shin for the first half of the run today. I remember that yoga really helped stretch this out. Next yoga class is on July 9^th but I can still do a lot of the poses.
