It is the time of year when I can finally pull out the holiday running shirts. It was a cold, damp, sometimes drizzly day to close out November, which meant this shirt was hidden under a jacket. This also ended a “recovery” week where I still managed to run four times, including a turkey trot and a workout of straights and curves. I’ll get back into regular training mode starting tomorrow. Long term, I’m thinking Cherry Blossom Ten Miler will be the target, but lottery registration doesn’t even open until January 5. A 12-week training block for Cherry Blossom wouldn’t even start until probably around 1/20, so I’ll just do some base building for now. Lots of miles and hills.
