3.7 miles through the hood.

There was a bad accident on one of the main intersections, two cars totally destroyed, a third damaged, and a helicopter landing on the lawn of the nearby park. Reminded me once again how fast things can change.

moonlight: wonderful, I could imagine and almost feel the woods. Spring in our area is now (after 2 weeks) turning into lush tropical jungle, thanks to all the rain.

wc: I think you can try if you feel up to it. Start out slowly to warm up, then go as you like. Probably a good training run.

LB2: Happy Birthday to your daughter, enjoy the party.

traildc: Great Falls must be pretty spectacular, I miss running there, always liked it.

warden: Is this a dwarf (mountain) pine in the picture? Looks like the small, incredibly tough, very elastic trees growing in the Alps at higher elevation.

QOTD: Not too many tourists, mostly parents of the students. The size of the town triples or quadruples on football weekends. Then it's too many. The students are tourist-like in August and September, but then blend in pretty well. Meaning, they blend in with the student population, which is more than 1/2 of the town. "Normal" people are not seen very much around here.

Small town, big college, huge football. It's a curse. 

Drove up to VF to run Mt Joy. After two miles my legs were done. There's another trail event at Coventry Woods in three weeks that offers 5K, 10K, 3-hours, and 6-hours. We'll see how it goes then.
