6:55 pace, east river road. I tried running on the side path and it wasn't good right now.
From my new place, it seems clear that east river road will definitely take a back set compared with west river road, a reversal from how it had been previously.  

About 6:45 pace. I ran to Res Woods via Como, and the trails from the cemetery aren't marked online so it makes accuracy a little more questionable. Overall it was a nice run, although I was very dissapointed that the fairgrounds are already closed. On top of that, it appears they are redoing the roof of a big local building nearby, which is such a bummer after I just moved from a place where they were doing that. I didn't catch too many whiffs of tar today though. 

Workout at Como park. The path that goes along the south side of Como avenue is just a hair short of 800 meters. If it was a little longer I wouldn't have had to slam on the brakes at the end of each of my 6 reps (<2:30 rest for each). I added 3.5 seconds as a distance adjustment to each rep and after doing that adjustment got the following times: 2:20, 2:24, 2:18, 2:24, 2:17, 2:23. Because one direction was more downhill then the other, each rep in the same direction was faster than the one previous. 

6:58 pace, east river flats. I was going to do west river road, which may become a weekly staple over the next couple of years, but the construction on Pelham is now blocking the sidewalk I would need to get there relatively efficiently. It said the sidewalk would be open throughout construction, but I guess I'm happy they are at least making progress. 

6:55 pace, Farmers fields. This was my first time doing this route from my new place. I have nothing major to report, other than the fact that the HealthPartners clinic is building its entire new, larger clinic across the street on the field! This means that I have to turn on Eustis instead of running through the field. TBH I'm tired of all of the construction / closures that are interfering with my running routes. I don't think I will be able to settle down with new routes until mid-September, and will probably need to take Eustis permanently as the construction isn't scheduled for completion until Fall 2027.
