AM - 4.25 miles with Dan and Finn at Milton HS and Crabapple.  Finn stopped and refused to start the third lap around the perimeter of the parking lots, but I sensed it was not due to fatigue, but instead he just did not want to run the same loop; so we ran back towards the cars where we parked, but exited the campus and ran a loop around the entry to Crabapple, and he seemed perfectly content.   I guess he's asserting his preferences in older dog years.

PM - 3.25 miles more or less on the trail after my workday - the temps are not as high over the last week, and it is good to get outdoors to clear my head.  Very slow easy effort.  Many deer out this evening.
