An Evening 6 Miler

This evening I ran a nice slow 6 miles from home to the Andersonville area and back. I really like this neighborhood. The old Swedish area is now home to an eclectic group of folks, including a growing gay/lesbian contingent. Lots of nice shops and restaurants.

As I got away from the lake, I lost the coolness of the air, so it got a bit warm out there tonight, but that was ok. The funny part of the run was running into my friend Angelica. She is runner who runs most of the fun runs at our store. I "ran" into her as she was heading to another running store to run their fun run tonight. I think she was a bit embarrassed, but I had not problem with it. I actually thought it was funny.

The run was slow mostly because people were on their way home, and I weaved in and out of people on the sidewalks. Normally I am a bit miffed by this, because I want a decent time, but tonight I just went with the flow. It was a good run.

This week's long run will be one more 6 mile run, then the long runs begin to climb.
