Saturday :
21.9 KM of (Mist, +6°C, 97% humidity, and 15 KM/H wind).

Nice morning of reading then headed out into the mess that is Ottawa right now. It misted, it rained, and I clocked my longest run of the year while trying to stay in Zone 2 (8%, 68%, 24%) - kept getting harder and harder as the KMs crept by, but I got it done. First half since April last year. Progress!

Ran out of podcasts and switched to music. was Barrio No Dance by Noanowa.

Next week: Vacation!
