Rain, rain, go away!

So I've managed to catch a few nice days this week.  Being back in KC, means being back at Macken Park.  Monday I went for an evening jog since we were traveling throughout the day, and there was this one part of the trail that was just beautiful.  It was definitely the highlight in my 2 mile jog.

Can you see the all of the cottonwood stuff in the air?  It was so magical.

Today I decided to hit the 3 mile mark again.  I'm trying to add to my distance, and since I've done 3 5ks in less than a year, I figure that needs to be my minimum run from now on.  Geesh...I hope I'm up for it.  I still have the goal of running a 10k by the end of the year...or maybe...a half marathon....  

So i guess the days of running 2 miles a day will be phased out over the next few weeks.  I love running at Macken Park, but the trail is just 1 mile so it does get a little monotonous.  I might have to find some place new for some longer days.  We'll see.  I'll stick with it for now.
