The Weatherman

I tried a new run from our house…a bit longer at 4.56 miles but the hill climbs are more steady (ie, less steep).

Here is the map of the run I do most evenings.

Check out this run that I did today that took me to Alki Point and back.

It was a doozy at 7.69 miles. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to run that distance. Steph actually drove the route when I was about 2/3s done asking if I needed a ride. I declined and gutted it out. All went well until the last couple of hundred feet of my climb - I started to get cramps in my calves. I basically looked like a duck running as I tried to avoid a painful cramp.

This will be a good twice a month run but it definitely won’t replace my current daily run. This was much too long and difficult.
