Bloomington loop for lunch. Rainy for the first 4 miles. I liked it!

Shortly after that a car ran the 3-way stop while I was in the middle of the crosswalk. Good thing I was aware of a car coming. I was able to deviate enough so I spun down the side of the slippery, wet car. The old lady stopped and rolled down her window to say sorry and that she didn't shee me. I replied back, as I took off running again, to stop at the stop sign next time!

I did speed up my run after that car got in my way. I was averaging about a 8:30 pace and I finished my run with a 7:45 average!
