    5 miles at 5 am done. Easy pace and the temperature was a nice 53F.

    @Scott6255 - Sorry for your not so great run but I had to laugh at the "waste of a beautiful morning" comment!

    Congratulations on your new grandbaby @quilteryoyo!

    Nice job getting a run in while out of the country on vacation @martaindale!

    Great running everyone!

    @katharmonic Great job in letting your friend sucker you into running further than intended. You are doing great and sounds like she is also. I'll try the pictures again this morning, but my internet is being finicky again today.

    Nice job getting in your 20 mile run @marisap2010 . When is your race?

    You did great getting in your run @shanaber . Also glad the bathroom was available with cool water. You are doing great. Thanks for the RTY update.

    Congratulations @7lenny7 ! It's awesome that you beat Courtney. I hope you recover quickly and am looking forward to your race report.

    @polskagirl01 Oh no! That watch shows how bad the fall was. I hope everything is only minor injuries and heals quickly.

    Looks like a nice vacation, even if you had to deal with a lot of drama @eleanorhawkins . Love the pictures. I would be concerned about the boar, but glad all you have to do is make noise to scare them away.

    @tarun_yadavA Great run and it pays to take a couple of days off now and then.

    Nice getting in a treadmill walk @Teresa502 ! I may have to look into getting tickets to Rhythm and Roots next year.

    Here is a try at the pictures. Yeah, it worked! Darn internet issues.

    Further away for a better size perspective. It is probably about 3 - 4 inches across, so not small.

    @tarun_yadavA wow, that is a long line! It says a lot about how much people respected the Queen.

    I did 7 miles this morning. Another relatively cool morning at 68F, and dew point was 57. Felt better today. Wore an ankle brace, started the first mile with baby steps which made the ankle and shins not hurt very much. Then gradually increased stride length to (almost) normal. Even threw in a few fartleks and it felt pretty good. But after I took a shower, the outside edge of my left foot (where I was wearing the ankle brace) feels really sore. Ugh, just can't catch a break.

    @Scott6255 well done on the 7M ! 🙌

    @tarun_yadavA - I heard on the news here that they are expecting 750K people -so yes the queue will be long!

    Also @quilteryoyo had 2 babies born... the one in the pictures was her neighbor's baby and her step-daughter also had a new baby but in Florida...

    @Scott6255 - I hope your ankle feels better!
    @polskagirl01 - you'll get back to that level of fitness again. I think you are doing great and I am so glad you are feeling better overall! That is great that your daughter is excited about running with you and her new gym teacher!

    Hey, it's nice to have a run where most things somehow worked out. This one was odd: my HR was about 10bom lower than on all previous runs. Unfortunately, the HR where my breathing gets faster, presumably around the lactate threshold was also about 10bpm lower. Bummer. But I think I could have ran on a bit more. I was just getting bored by this super slow running. Oh, back from vacation, and it's clearly cooler here. Will only manage to do one more run tomorrow, and then I'm off again for a long weekend event.

    Run felt short today, even though it was 6-something km. I didn't pay much attention to pace, ran/walked when I wanted, at an easy-ish pace. I did have to take a nap mid-day, but overall I'm feeling ok 🙂

    Lots of green. And an interesting dead wasp.

    58.26/100 miles completed for September

    I was too tired to post last night, but I had a great run yesterday. It was a little warmer than Sunday and Monday, but still very pleasant at about 72°F with a dew point of 59°. I felt like I could run forever. I love those runs. I saw the funniest thing. There was a cat sitting on a curb and a few feet away there was a skunk. They didn't seem to mind each other at all. The skunk was busy rooting around for bugs and the cat was just sitting there. I have noticed that cats like to loiter but skunks are always busy. Then I realized that the cat was also black and white and I thought of the cartoon where PePe LePew thinks the cat is a skunk and falls in love. I just burst out laughing. I am glad no one was around. They would have thought that I was crazy.

    Today I ran the same 5.5 miles as yesterday. It was a good run, but not as awesome as yesterday. I did have new shoes though. And I got a new water bottle to replace the one with the leaky lid.
