on the road again

It's been a while since my last good long run (which I remind you is VERY slow) so I set out to do just that this morning- to spend over an hour on the road again.

Only thing is: I left my nike chip at home on the dresser. Oops. No matter. it actually was a blessing in disguise, because I was set out to do 6 miles on the long, flat, visually unstimulating levee at the wright pattman lake again.

Instead, I ran the stretch of the levee where I could see the water, fishermen, boats, wildlife, etc., then turned down the ramp towards the small airport runway, then back (towards where I parked, this time with the levee above me and on my right). At the spillway of the levee, where the catfishermen congregate, there is a series of hills to climb, which will bring me back to the parking lot the ol tacoma sat. I did this 3 times, with each lap equal to 2.7 miles, brining my total distance traveled to 8.1 miles.

I can live with that. Now: on to breakfast!!!
