    Trail Running vs Commuting

    On most days, I bike, bus, and/or carpool my way to and from work/workouts. I’m proud of my efforts to be a greener commuter. But once and a while, I drive. I can’t stand car commuting. It’s aggravating, bad for the environment, and there’s no parking. Really, it’s mostly that I get in a terrible mood from the stand still traffic. I can’t believe people do it every day. But this morning I discovered a nice way to counter the commute. If you’ve got to drive, an hour trail run in Pacific Spirit park does wonders to balance your morning.

    58 min + plus 20 min walk
    Avg HR 143

    In case you’re wondering, I used the M2 Route Scout site to map my run in the endowment lands. The route was 10.6km.

    Yahoo, what a victory! I managed to make it to the gym tonight. With my run done in the morning, there was lots of “my actual life” time in the evening. After a sunset walk, I headed to the gym.
