Deload week so soon? Not mad about it. The early rounds of NHL playoffs are the craziest, because there are many more cities you could be sent off to on a whim. Shorter runs were appreciated. This week had me running in Vegas and Montreal, two VERY different climates in early May.

This week is the first of many that something’s got to give when it comes to time and energy to do anything, and in typical runner fashion, Strength sessions are the first to hit the cutting room floor. Oops.

FRI 5/8 • Day 19: Tempo 2+1

This was the first of what would turn into several runs along the Lachine Canal. Somehow managed to pull that one out of my rear end after waking up at 3am, thanks to a tailwind and a face full of Starbucks mini pancakes.

Note: US Starbucks needs to get mini pancakes.

Still wearing a jacket on May 10th? Does not compute 😵‍💫

4.5 easy Sunday morning miles along the canal ✅

Another Game Day run, which isn’t the norm. With how late work went last night, I had no choice. Ended up sharing the trail along the canal with a Red Bull running event, it fun to see a bunch of fellow runners getting after it at 7am on a Sunday 🤓
