The Green Sower as opposed to the Grim Reaper? Get it? Well it's a pretty bad pun but there wasn't much to photograph out there today. Did a 12 mile run that exposed my lack of training. I did it in 2:03:19 which was about 10:16 per mile. I was sore as hell in the last 2 miles but, surprisingly, didn't lose my pace. Part of the reason for that is mile 11 has a long downhill slope which is a blessing for tired spent legs. You can add what little energy you have left and let the inertia take over. It was good to get this run in before the half marathon next month. Need to work on shorter more intense runs, at least 4-5 a week, do a couple of 10-12s and a tempo 8 or two and I'll be ready. Easier said than done.
The birding was good at the field with Pipits, Bluebirds and Meadowlarks taking advantage of the bright, sunny, Winter day. Good to be alive!
