Week 5 of Hills

Tonight was another night of running up a hill over and over and over again.

At least this time we ran up a different hill than we have done for the last 4 weeks. I have to admit, I think I was a little tired this week. I wasn't able to keep up with one of the girls that I can usually keep up with. But hey, I ran pretty hard on Saturday. I'll allow myself a tired day here and there.

The good part: it was kind of a beautiful night. There was a full moon with little wispy clouds that were backlit by the moon. We ran in a wide open area of Prospect Park, and it's not often that you get a view of so much pretty sky in NYC.

Here's a picture I took while I was on the subway (the N Train goes over the Manhattan Bridge) headed to training. It's hard to get a good shot while you are moving, but the sunset was gorgeous behind the Brooklyn Bridge.


In a few weeks it won't be dark when we start our evening runs anymore! Daylight Savings Time starts in only a few weeks. I can't wait! I wish we never went to standard time.

After the run everyone expressed to the coaches that we are BORED of the park, and we would like to leave the park for our long run this week. I hinted that I really liked going over the bridge last time. Luis said that maybe we would run over the Brooklyn Bridge. That would be fun! We'll see on Saturday...
