AM -  5 miles on the trail with Dan and the dogs.   It is getting too overgrown in the undeveloped areas with lots of thorns.  May need to modify the loop or go out with some trimmers to break the trail.

AM - just 4 this morning with Dan and the dogs from his place.   Rosie wanted to go but she really doesn't like to run quickly or long - so we went easy and a little shorter today.

AM - just undert 5.25 miles on the trail with Finn.  The city evidently mowed the undeveloped sections in the last day or so - by evidence of a large tractor and much lower weeds and grass in the open fields - so the run was more enjoyable.  Only the lower section of the back woods with the really large thorn bushes was uncut - but someone had cut back some of the branches that were in the path just two days ago.

AM - 7 miles with Dan and Finn through Tullamore.  Very warm today and bad AQI.    Doesn't bode well for Peachtree on Tuesday.
