Itty bitty progression run.

6:41 am, 43° F, 64% humidity, winds calm, very light rain, just enough to make the road damp and make my glasses spotty.

I drove to seminary this morning and then ran after that. That doesn't leave me much time for running, but I'm not up for much distance these days anyway. I started out really slowly but then got going a little better, so I decided to push it just a little bit and make it a little progression run.

There was a really horrible smell, like vomit, as I went around one corner of a busy intersection where there are a lot of retail businesses. After I got around the corner I saw two guys with a big tanker truck and a big tube going into the ground behind a restaurant. I'm guessing that that was the source of the smell. I was glad when I got past it.

YUCK - to that smell! What were they doing? Crazy.

Nice run, way to get it all in and still have your head about you. Good progression as well - looks like it's coming back easy :)

Nice runnin'!

Maybe that's the restaurant's idea of promotion. Sounds appetizing!
