Today was a weird day....I wanted to do an hour hill run in the morning and then drive to the pool at lunch time for a swim. The hill run got nixed due to work and then I found myself with the window over lunch to run commute swim and run commute back.

I actually do not enjoy running with a backpack on, but I end up saving ~24 minutes of driving time if I run the minimum out and back of 44 minutes, but once I am running I just make it 30+ minutes both ways. So this week I ended up with 8 runs from doubles and one single. The doubles were not intended (were not planned). They just happened, but by today I did not enjoy it. Before I leave the pool and when I get home, I run a bit on both ends without the backpack....it feels like bliss. Its not just the weight, I think it changes how I run. In any case I am at 35 runs and 292km.
