| Forgot to charge the Garmin so no time. Just did my run to where the sidewalk ends and back. This has become a pretty routine run replacing the pool run. Same course just a half mile further out. Again no wildlife just the other regulars.

| It started raining last night and was still going this morning. It was one of those super pleasant drizzles, not too hard not too light. The first 13 miles I did not see anyone, runner or animal. At the very end I saw two other runners. Kept it nice and easy then off to a birthday party with my daughter.
