Trying to catch the last of the clear sky and get one last good weekend combo run before Chuckanut.

Ran over to Evergreen-Rotary Park and met Mike there early, we stood and chatted for a few before taking off up the Warren Ave. Bridge. We both had long Saturdays and were dragging to get started. Off the bridge and down to Lions Park for a loop around the exterior and along the shoreline. Then headed back we broke off Lebo and went into the Stephenson Park or preserve or whatever. It's city trails, and I'd never been in there before. Kind of a small area, but a nice little creekside/ravine trail network and we circled around in there for a few minutes exploring. Came out on Callahan (I think) just a block off Lebo and the bridge. Back Old Wheaton to Manette, crossed the Manette Bridge (second time) and back to Evergreen. Split with Mike and headed home across the bridge (numero three) and along upper Shore Drive for some extra mileage.  67:41

Time to make some pancakes. I'll taper some in the next two weeks. Not planning to drop the miles dramatically, but I can tell my legs need a little rest and maybe some yoga.
