I planned to connect my two runs from monday and tuesday. turning the two out and backs into a loop. I thought the distance connecting them was a lot more than it actually turned out to be, so my plan for 11-12 miles was cut short. It was pretty humid & warming up, so I didn't mind being finished when I got home.
Ran by this cypress swamp with lilly pads. Really pretty. The lilly pads are in the back of the swamp.
Saw more dead snakes than I would have liked to have seen. Most were really run over, but this guy was a pretty fresh kill.
And he's not a rat snake. Not sure what kind he really is. Any guesses?
Then of course there was the dead bird I'd already seen on Monday, and something in the middle of the road with a long tail. Could have been a rat or little opossum...too much traffic for me to get a good look at him.
Avg pace was 9:22 again. 79 degrees & 80% humidity the entire run. Thank my lucky stars that the cloud godess was smiling on me and it was overcast almost the whole time.
Now I'm off to make french toast for breakfast since I don't have anyone to take me out to eat after they weed my yard. |
