Glen Echo, MD. From the Lock 7 parking lot, to the C&O Canal Towpath, then south to the pumping station below Lock 5, then back. I ran this route one month ago today, when there was a bit of slushy stuff on the towpath. Today it was pretty dry, despite the rains last night. There was a bit of wind; mostly behind me on the way out, so opposite on the return. Going out was slightly downhill too. My legs felt a little tired from the last 2 days, but not too much. After the first and second mile came in under 9 minutes, I did work to keep my pace up. However I was tiring. I wore my new Nike Zoom Structures again. I'd adjusted the laces since the last run on them. They felt okay however the ball of my right forefoot was feeling it by the end--that's probably just lack of training and my weight.
