Soggy Speed Run

Something lit a fire under me. I had great speed all the way through. Perhaps its the rain.

A shower had already wandered through the downtown earlier this morning, and the sky was pretty grey. A little bit spitty, but hardly even noticeable. But shortly after I got to the river side, it opened up. Just a nice gentle downpour, that persisted throughout the rest of the run.

Even with the grey and the wet, there were a lot of runners out. A lot of walkers, too. It even looked like Shakespeare in the Park was setting up for their noon hour show.

Distance: 7.22 km. Time: 36:25. Average speed: 11.9 kph (5:03 min/km).

Shoes: Saucony Grid Phoenix (Yellow) B.

Weather: Light rainshower and 12C.
