First practice of the Team-In-Training Season!

My Teammates were scheduled for 20 minutes out and 20 minutes back. For the first 2 miles of running, I jogged slowly or walked in order to talk to new participants. The turnout is huge this year, and it will take time before I will have all the names and faces put together.

After everyone else turned around at the 20 minute mark, I ran most of the listed OMSI-Sellwood route. Since I had forgotten to bring my HR, I tried to take it easy. From start to Sellwood Bridge checkpoint was approximately 5 miles in 46 minutes.

Most of the run seemed to have a small amount of mist. The docks were cold and icy. Saying "Hi" to other runners and bikers seemed to brighten everyone's day a small bit.

Close to the finish I came across my recent marathon training partner/TNT coordinator Audrey and her boss Steph who were getting a late start on their own Hawthorne/Steel Bridge Loop. I turned around and ran most of that with them.

From the Sellwood checkpoint to the finish was about 9.25 miles in 75 minutes. Breakfast afterwards at the ol' standby J&M Cafe.

Way to go! You're running well despite the time off. I gotta get on one of those long runs with you and eat afterwards at the J&M. Good job - esp
