100th st loop repeats

yay ~ my hubby is back from virginia! :) just in time for running class!

with temperatures around 69F and a humidity of 80%, the weather was almost perfect for our NYRR running class tonight. it was definitely the coolest it's been for weeks, which was a nice change.

for tonight's workout, coach glover had us do 6 x 650m repeats around a small loop at 100th street on the east side of central park. i started and stayed within the second group (7-8 min 5k'ers), and kevin ran with group one, though rotating into group two to keep me company for one loop.

the course is really nice! the are small rollers, and some interesting curves along the route, to keep the run entertaining. it was the first time i felt distracted by the other runners in the class though, and particularly, their varying running forms and gaits. oh well.

it was fun exploring a new part of central park for me! it's a quiet part of the park (except for the sweaty running messes) where there are no cars or bikes, and manageable for an evening stroll :)
