Strong run on grass

On a beautiful night, 70-plus, a little breeze, I drove to Eastlake Park and ran some laps on the grass of the driving range and soccer fields. I did one 6:30 shorter lap, then 6:47 longer lap, followed 6:46, 6:39 and 6:39. Nice and steady, not the easiest pace for me, as I try to build up my aerobic conditioning. 33:30.

Then I ran 4 20-second strides on the grass next to the tennnis courts. I worked on form, lifiting my knees, using my arms, staying relaxed. It felt great. My knee hurt just a little afterwards, but it was a great run.
