Running?!

After some serious procrastination, I finally started my running training in preparation for the upcoming Warrior Dash at the Windham ski resort in the Catskills. I've always disliked running, but it's so much more fun when I run with my sweetie. Gail took me on one of her regular routes which takes you up Seneca St. and then north on Stewart Ave. and back down University. What a lovely morning!

My plan is to start running up one of the cemetery hills, since the start of the Windham Warrior Dash involves running 1.5 miles straight up a ski trail. This seems like quite a challenge for a non-runner, but from what I hear, it's quite a fun affair and nobody takes it too seriously. My plan is to run two or three times per week in preparation.
