Comments: I really wasn't sure about how far I was going to run today when I walked out the door. But with the lack of traffic and reasonable temperatures I decided to head to downtown and back. The result was what I have dubbed, The Easter Morning Zombie Apocalypse 15K.
The lack of traffic really was creepy. I've never seen these streets so empty in the daytime. The upshot is I really wasn't too concerned about my safety for a change. And the different route was a nice change of pace.
The run itself went fine. I really wasn't planning on pushing it. The heat and humidity ganged up on me along with the hills on the last three miles. So that wasn't a lot of fun. I thought I was taking it pretty easy but heart rate was in Zone 5 for about half the effort.
