Nice to know i wasn't just running out of necessity, but rather, because i simply wanted to. Even with a lot on my mind, i didn't actually need this run to retain sanity. I knew this was just for me, and that felt good.
My neighborhood felt oddly deserted. so did the trail for a while. then i realized, of course there weren't gunna be lots of people at 1:30 on a tuesday tuesday, even in the summer. Later the trail became more populated - often almost 5 people in sight at a time. It wasn't till three miles into the run that there was actually somebody to pass. Then i realized that there were so few people on during the beginning of my run because probably nobody wanted to take on that nasty hill lacking shade - I bet everyone escaped that bridge right before they got there. I dunno why I always cross it, i mean i could avoid it, but what's the point.
Decent run, but not up to my usual tempo. Think i was kinda lethargic? My mind wasn't too out of it, tho.
