Dark, But Not That Dark

Thanks to a little bit of cloud reflecting the city lights, it wasn't too dark out. I ran the Crowchild loop after wavering between that and the shorter 14th Street loop. That twenty minutes or so to get to 14th Street is usually enough to get warmed up and ready for the longer run.

But what a quiet evening. There were a few on the promenade, but after passing the 10th Street bridge, it seemed like no one was out. After crossing to the north side of the river and coming back along Memorial Drive, it stayed quiet.

Nice run though, finishing with a sort-of sprint up the stairs, and actually running right from the top step without slowing down to walk it out a little.
