Saturday I was able to do both an open lake swim and a run. I met up with one of my buddies at 6am to get in a mile swim at Montclair Lake in Woodbridge.
I then drove back to Mason Neck Wild Life Refuge and met up with my wife to get our running in. My wife has been training for the Marine Core Marathon. Her running plan had her running 9 miles. I always take the kids in the double jogger and run the same distance she does. The run felt good. Here is what my Garmin 305 recorded.
Distance 9 miles
Pace per mile 6:58 min
Calories burned 1900
It was a great double workout. Here's a pic of me and the kids in the double jogger. I was going to try and do my best impression of "Ice man" in Top Gun but my gut doesn't go that far in and I still need a full tan rather than a cyclist tan.
As for Hanes Point, the sprinklers are still up. We did the alternate loop and Mr. Chuck Hutch himself decided he was going to go hard so me and Guy Perotti latched on and decided to enjoy the ride. Chuck was pulling hard. We all stayed together for about 3 laps then it started getting a bit to dicey for me with the cars and pedestrians and all. Call me a puuuussey I guess !!!, but I still have to go back to work and in one peace preferably.
Here are some shots from today. Chuck Hutch himself and the mayor of Hanes Pt, Myron L. Trust me, Myron will let you know if your F'ing up a pace line. That's why we call him the Mayor.
