The Weather Outside is... Unpredictable!

It was a typical week in Southern California ~ sun, rain, warm, cold, breezy and calm!  Here's how my week went:

Sunday - Ran 10.03 miles in 1:57:51
It was a cool 42 when I headed out, but was quickly warming.

Monday - Rest Day
The forecast called for Santa Ana winds with gusts of up to 45 mph.  The winds never showed, but I enjoyed a rest day anyway.

Tuesday - Rode 12.41 miles on Backbone Trail in 1:57:08
The most beautiful day of the week.  Sunny and warm, we had a high of 77!



Wednesday - Rode 9.36 miles on Las Llajas in 1:02:16
A storm was moving in.  Temps were low 50s, I got lightly sprinkled on.

Thursday - Rest Day
It started raining Wednesday night and was raining steadily when I woke up.

Friday - Ran 7 miles in 1:23:52
The storm brought much cooler temps.  It was 38 when I got up to run, we don't see that very often!

Saturday - Ran 4.40 miles in 56:28
We got a bunch more rain on Friday night.  Temps dropped to 37 early this morning.  It was cold, but I loved it!  It's so much easier to put on an extra layer.


All in all, a very fun week.  I'm really enjoying running and cycling when I want, without a training goal at this time.

  1. It is great when you get to enjoy those things without training. I have had a great fall of that :)

  2. It's a good reminder of why I started running and cycling in the first place - I like it!
