72nd St. Digi says 4.45 miles 45 minutes.

It's really hard to run in the city. The sidewalks are full of people, people with bags, people with bicycles, people with strollers, people with children and strollers and tourists. Tourists stand still at odd moments.




Traffic lights are programed to turn red as I approach an intersection.

City Running

7/6
Ran 23rd st to 8th Ave to 16th
st. (20 minutes) Then went to the park and ran about 30 minutes mostly uphill.

Home again

Found a trail in Ft. Tryon Park that I had walked before, very uphill. I'm going to have to work out a route amongst all the pathways, trying to find ways that are not too much downhill. Right knee does not like down hill.

It keeps you running (or walking)

All in all I got what I wanted from the vacation 'runs'. I got started or restarted.

I always miss the ocean. I didn't even swim this year, but I just like being there.

The quaintness will raise your blood sugar.

Back to the city tomorrow. Short reports follow:
7/2
Walked 1 mile - no soreness
7/3
walked about an hour.

Slow down you move too fast

7/1 Day of rest
Right knee a little sore.
Treated with Ben Gay and Advil
This is Fletcher's Lake.
