Rose Canyon!
I’m up to 50 minutes now.
Frank brought me to Rose Canyon to run this morning. I’ve only been on the paved bike trail portion but never on the main strech for joggers and mountain bikers. The canyon looks unbelievably green due to the rains this past weekend and overall I think it is a good place to work those legs.
Anyway, the run. First off, wearing a black shirt was a BAD idea. I felt a like heat sponge under the really-warm Feburary sun. Since the canyon runs southwest-northeast and leads to the Pacific Beach/Mission Bay area, I was expecting a breeze blowing through the path. Wrong! So heat sponge I was for nearly an hour.
The pace was subpar. My shoulders were sore and my legs were almost uncomfortably tight afterwards.
Well, you do things and learn from it. Next time - light colors/shirtless and start before it gets too toasty!
