Week Thirteen - Long Run
Today was another fabulous run. Not quite as great as last week's, but nearly so.
I plotted a new route to try, a loop instead of there-and-back. I think I've converted to loops, now, for longer runs. Avoiding the repetition of seeing the same sites twice is much more pleasant.
Today's route was along the creek, up Minnehaha Ave., west down the Midtown Greenway, and back home via Lakes Calhoun and Harriet. Link to route map.
I'm happy with my pace; at this rate I could have a 4:20 marathon. It might take a bit of pushing to do this, but maybe I'll be up for it!
