This blind spot was finally fixed

Overgrown sidewalk
From two months ago.

 

Colonial Grande community
A first class residential development.

 

early morning walk
A delightful surprise.

 

A public blind spot was finally fixed. The sidewalk was overgrown for one year. We live two miles from it and occasionally use it. i was certain someone living in the huge residential complex would take action. And accepted the fate of inaction.

Yesterday i was out the door at 6am for an early run but decided to walk (five miles) instead.

Rounding the corner much to my surprise, a completely cleared sidewalk.

The Orange County Government blindspot has been fixed.

First time in tee shirt in six months

Nice and easy yesterday. A few hours later, a gym workout.

 

First time wearing a tee shirt (to run) in six months. i knew it was coming. It arrives within a three-week window every year – a chilly morning. And by chilly, below 70 degrees.

About two miles into the 8-miler, the tee-shirt came off – too hot. Made it home before sunrise. If you note the last mile (71 minutes…i forgot to stop the timer) and the time at the very top, the run concluded around 7:10am.

Even though the goodness is obvious, many still avoid it

Covered 10 miles to Magic Kingdom and back yesterday after a week off. Seven miles of running, the rest walking. It was great thinking time.

Exercise is good for multitasking. Good for the body, good for the soul.

Will we find a comfortable pace?

University Track
Valparaiso University in Indiana a few days ago.

 

Driving down to Disney’s Riverside Resort to meet Ohio State friend, Craig, for a 6am run.

He’s been running regularly for about a year. Me, about 16 years. There’s a 21 year difference in age. Hope neither of these two things means anything.
