Running

Today I did a 10mile partly on the frozen Rideau Canal and the bike path that runs parallel to it. We had our first day when the temperature rose about 32F and the snow is finally starting to melt. The run was going well and I had to the GPS going so I knew that I was maintaining my target pace. As I was about 6km from the university a fellow runner started to run aggressiverly behind me. He was eager to pass me. He would surge and try to pass at which point I would surge and open up a lead. I found the whole exercise sort of fun as we were both pushing each other to run faster. This surge and relax continued for about three kilometers before he backed off. I was sort of pleased that he did as my legs were starting to get sore.
