Ann was away for the weekend, visiting her sister in Seattle, so I did the simplest route possible: Leif (starting at Thurman) to Saltzman to Wildwood to Wild Cherry and back to Leif. Fifteen-plus miles. Boom, done.

I saw lots of colorful details in nature around me, even though the route itself was boring.

just the late start and running alone, until the next morning it was
even worse and my throat hurt. Well no wonder-- I was SICK!

The moral of the story is that if a run feels tough, cut yourself some slack. There might be a good reason.
