Sunday Evening

Nothing special about this run. I needed to get out for some distance, but with everything feeling a little tight and stiff, I took it easy. I still made a respectable time of it.

They've dug up the walking path from the Edworthy bridge to about where Parkdale meets 3rd Avenue. It looks like it's all prepped for paving, with some kind of liner covered with packed sand.

And the river is almost as crowded as Deerfoot, with all the rafters on it.

I didn't get out until late afternoon. I met a friend for breakfast, that just moved back from Ontario after six years or so. Very good to see her again and catch up on stuff. But of course, a big breakfast ain't conducive to distance running.

Distance: 16.10 km. Time: 1:36:58

You ran off your big breakfast and made room for a big dinner! :-)

It seemed unusually quiet early this morning down around there. What a pleasure running in the cooler temperature.
