Gatineau Park Run #1 for the weekend

Just finished a nice run in the park. Starting from Gamelin I ran up to Pink Link and back. Kept the pace easy but the hills are still the hills.

Right now I’m sitting @ Les Saisons Café having a piece of Coffee Cake and a Cappuccino. Weather is perfect and not too hot.

It’s amazing how much more enjoyable the run is when you keep the pace reasonable. This certainly was one my nicer runs in a while. Lots of people in the park including some families. Most folks are on their bike of course given the hills but I did pass a few runners. At least I’m not the only crazy person up here today!

Bought a copy of Run Fat Boy Run to watch tonight. Should be fun. Jo-Anne’s away so I’m on my own hence I get to pick the movie.

Greg sent me a slightly revised schedule for the next few weeks to get a bit more faster running in before the Canada Day 10k. More of a focus on going faster with good leg turn over. I think it should help. After this run I’ll probably do the Glen Tay 14.7k race in August in Perth.
