5:30 am. Probably one of the coolest things about Garmin Connect is that you can look up other people runs and bike rides. So I knew I was going to be in Anehiem California today and did a search around Disney and found a bike trail about 3 miles away by the Honda center and the Angels field. So I drove out and found a nice safe place to park and took off running the unknown. It's amazing how in an urban city you can find a trail that is continuous for 20 miles without stops. Plus it had drinking fountains about every 3-5 miles which was nice. Was planning on going 15 miles but at 7.5 I got to a pretty big park, I wanted to find a drinking fountain before I turned around and ended up going 8 miles to water. Worth the extra mile. Not especially scenic route but nice morning for a run, cool, light breeze, a little humid. 16 miles in 1:49:00 6:50/mile avg pace. I'm suppose to run 5 for lunch, but doubt it will happen since I'm on a work trip and have lunch plans with a client.
