Neither Timato nor I can go for a long run this weekend. In my case, it's because I'll be working at Wilderness Traverse HQ. In Timato's case, it's because I spirited his wife away to work at HQ with me, so he will be on Daddy duty.
So he planned a 5-hr run at Hockley Valley after work and offered to run my pace for the first Hockley Loop. He knew he would probably quit early if he tried to run alone in the dark for 5 hrs on a week night, and I knew it would be too easy to blow off solo training plans this week because I'm so busy with Wilderness Traverse. So it worked out perfectly. Friends using friends, haha!
It was a warm night with no one else on the trails, and the company was excellent. I felt surprisingly good considering that I just spent 6 hrs on the Hockley trails on Sunday. I don't think I've ever done two Hockley Loops in a 4 day period before.
And now I can dive back into WT work non-stop until Sunday night. I had my annual radio interview with Moose FM in Parry Sound today!
