Discovery Park is damn refreshing!

Also, I'm digging this RunKeeper app so far. It gives you all the details a GPS watch would (tracks, average pace, pace splits, etc.), except that I start it then put it away in my pocket. I am not looking at it over and over again during the run. Also, my phone is usually charged, and my watch often is not.

However, to ensure that the app doesn't talk to me, I've turned off auto-pause because it likes to say, "Activity Paused" and "Activity Resumed" all the time and is not always pausing at appropriate times. So if I use this app, it should be for a workout that doesn't involve stopping.

I'm also encouraged to use it because it will give an average pace over the course of an entire month, which is interesting. Of course, running races (or not) would totally skew it, but should be interesting nonetheless. Though apparently I can only see this on my phone and not on the desktop version. (?)

Intervals and gym time will return next week!

Fremont, Ship Canal, Magnolia, through Discovery, Ballard Bridge.

Wow, the Olympic mountains look amazing today! Crisp day and clear views.

Elapsed time 1:15, estimated moving time 1:10.

Git up there on that there wagon! GIT!

Drove out to Discovery Park. Ran the loop. Beautiful day. Beautiful shoes.

I broke my rule and Kate and I went on a short bike ride on the Burke.

My rule is that riding in cold = fine, riding in wet = fine, riding in wet + cold = not fine. But we survived, and it was actually quite nice, and now we can have grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup.
