summer cold
i caught a minor cold. i’m not going to whine about it, but that’s just not supposed to happen.
7/20 – Off (observed the Tour de France “rest day”)
7/21 – 5 miles easy (university ave)
simple sunday seven
7 miles in 57:30
easy does it
my morning constitutional went eastbound on the glacial drumlin and then back home for a total of six miles. temps were in the mid-fifites and the sky was overcast. after returning home, i put the trash and recyclables to the curb. all in all, it was rather uneventful today – – which is just fine.
ten clicks with one big hill
i opted to run in town today and nearly became a hood ornament due to a driver that felt their stop sign was merely advisory in nature. i stood at the corner and applauded as they drove by with a cigarette in hand (at around 6am). regardless, i opted to climb the hill at glacial cone park before returning home. it’s about a quarter mile long and goes straight up. i found this photo on flickr that gives you a view from the top of the hill in the fall. in the end, i collected 6.25 miles on my GPS watch and retired to the shower.
