Cool Running

We have run in freezing cold temps all this week. Nonetheless, the PRC gang has put up some impressive runs. The LTR group has been making great strides and seem ready to move up to four and twos. A few more sessions and they'll be there. Some are ready to soar already I hear!
Three hilly runs for the regular group have strengthened quads and achilles. The paces have been improving so much that for many, a 6k pace seems to be a thing of the past. A number of runners have been showing marked improvement over previous years. The steady training should pay big dividends during the approaching racing season,, especially for those targeting a destination 10k, half or full marathon.
The PRC colours were switched to green last night for the annual St. Patrick's Day party. A great time was had by the more than 50 runners and guests. A few gatorades were consumed by this health-conscious group over the course of the evening. A big thank you to organizers and our DD Craig who ensured party-goers arrived home safely.
With another storm approaching, we may have to head indoors for a run or two. After that the arrival of Spring is guaranteed to brighten our spirits!  And as always...we'll see you on the road.

  1. It appears that we're all feeling the wrath of Mother Nature this winter on the East Coast. The streets and sidewalks of Halifax are still treacherous so I'm definitely ready for spring!!! Happy Running :)
