Burke-Gilman Trail from 45th/Sandpoint out toward Matthews Beach, my usual run from Bryce and Bonnie's. Usually Sunday mornings are quiet on this part of the trail, but today I had *competition*. A guy moving pretty well wearing a 'North Central XC 1999' shirt, which means -- if his North Central is North Central College and not North Central High in Spokane -- we may have run against each other in college. Long shot, but maybe. Anyway, I really felt pounded in the quads from yesterday's run. That or babysitting a two-year-old last night, maybe that did it. So I was pretty tired, went kind of easy for 25 minutes and stopped before the beach to enjoy the view and stretch. Then returned at a better pace, felt a little more comfortable. Since I cut it short I'm not completely sure of the distance, but six makes sense for a 48-minute run. Good start to the week, and a great finish to February. The running year is off to a good start.
