This is one of my favorite times of year to run. It's easy to get out of bed in the morning. The temperature is still pleasant. The air is heavily perfumed with Russian Olive blooms.
One of the best things about the run today is I didn't see any dogs. I hate when the little or big yippers come and knock me off stride.
My left knee feels bruised. It was less unpleasant as the run went on. I felt pretty good after 5 miles, but had to finish up to get off to the landfill and work. |
