The Shell to SW Path to Washington to the capital to Willy to Jenny to Spaight to Ingersoll to Rutledge to Division to Atwood to 1st to Johnson back-

After a rough day, it was finally time to run and I selected a route across the isthmus through Willy and Jenny Streets. As I passed the capital, there was assembled a massive, massive gay pride parade. They were chanting "California today, Wisconsin tomorrow", though they must mean at least 2018 given Wisconsin's process for constitutional amendments. I sped up to just get out of there but kept running into people. Once I got out to Willy it was quieter. I decided to come back on Johnson to avoid the capital. I hesitate to call this run "normal" by any means, but the run itself was moreso.
