From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. I probably had a slight tailwind. The trail was busy. I caught-up to a guy whom I ended up trading pulls with almost to the Jefferson Memorial. It was cool out; in the upper 50s F and dry. I felt better but still a little tired from the rogaine last Sunday.

From 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C., to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. I hit traffic leaving my office and there were significant headwinds getting to Georgetown. There was more traffic there. Someone had broken glass again, right at the trailhead to the Capital Crescent Trail (CCT) but I got through safely. The trees and shift in the directions that the trail took me kept the wind down and by the time I got to Bethesda, for some strange reason I had some tailwinds. I did get passed by a trio as I climbed the River Rd. overpass but almost caught one of them again. I felt like I had ridden strong and more quickly than my time indicates.
