Notes

I lay in bed a while, trying to convince myself that the wind would make a run unfeasible. It wasn't much of a factor, though, once I got out. There were a few times when I felt it prudent to watch for falling limbs, but other than dodging the occasional already-fallen stick, and having to bear against the wind on the northbound parts, this was comfortable.

I was amazed how strong my legs, and in particular my left ankle felt. I just ate up the J Street climb. Taking the J Street loop instead of Cooper was a spur of the moment decision. Glad I did; it was nice. The Winding Way loop wasn't bad at all. I'd say the relative slowness was mostly due to being unsure of my footing on irregular sidewalks.

Aggravated that the stopwatch was not running when I returned. Fortunately I had checked the time when I left, so this should be accurate to the minute. A lot of miles for three days.
