A Brief History of Time

Just kidding, this is NOT a brief history of time. Sometimes thinking of a title for a post is hard work and you just end up going with whatever pops into your head. Instead, this is a brief history of today's 4-mile run. I took the westerly route, the one with bigger hills. I ran the first half and then walked for a couple of minutes before resuming the third mile, the end of which included walking a quarter mile up a humongous hill before running the last mile without stopping. The first mile of this route is mostly uphill, meaning a gentle incline that keeps you from really ever catching your breath. I went during the late morning when the sun was shining and temperature only about 80 degrees. One thing about going that direction is that there are a lot less people than on my usual route through the park. Go figure. A nice breeze from the southeast helped when I ran that direction. Overall, a good outing and nice chance to get my run in early for the day.
