Getting to Know You

I've run some variation of this West Philly loop enough times now that I'm starting to feel more familiar with the terrain. The long, gradual stretches of incline that define much of it are good for me - like vegetables. Thing is... I like vegetables... but I'm learning to tolerate things like inclines and hills more. I just tell myself that it's something I need to do and come April 27th when I'm headed towards the last three hilly miles of the Lehigh Valley Half Marathon, I'll (hopefully) be glad for having done it.

I felt good this morning. Only slight tightness in my calves. I didn't stop to stretch and was fine.

Reading Seebo's post from yesterday, I'm looking forward to springtime running in Tinicum.
