walk dog 1:50:02 [1] 6.0 mi (18:20 / mi)
shoes: Merrell Chameleon 4 #5
Cool, not as humid, but the sun was starting to come out.
After some coaxing over the first 2-3 miles, J just plowed through the Blue-green loop. Then when we came out to where our car was parked, Canfield road was lined with people in lawn chairs, setting up food tables, etc. I had to ask - the parade of horse & buggies was about to start. Good thing we were leaving. However, I made a tactical error when I was going home on Smith - instead of going through the oil & gravel construction, I headed north, which ran me straight into the parade route. The policeman made me turn around. J was puzzled with that whole state of affairs. He likes our car rides to and from the park.

1 minute Fartleks, but without taking lap times. I wanted to run how the hip would feel. The hip mentioned it was there - more stiff/sore not pain, but not too much of a nuisance. It forced me to stay at 80% effort on the faster ones, I'd say (i.e. no 'powering' up hills, if that's what you might call what I do - [ha! purely in my dreams. Reality strikes when I can see my shadow, and I truly look like a 50 year old trying to run]).
84F, sunny, nice (I've acclimatized).
Surprised how fast this ended up overall, given that I wasn't running full bore.
(OK, I was puffing hard going up the last hill on Fall Meadow.)
Yesterday's 2 doughnuts were not a disaster. I don't know why I ate them - they never are what I remember from childhood - just sweet. .... Of course, I don't know when I last ate doughnuts. However, I was driving by Tim Horton's on the way home from the second errand (haircut), and I was drawn in, even though I already had eaten breakfast.
