Ran at the gym today because I was letting Charlie call the shots for his birthday. Originally was going to run 6 miles but it got cut short due to some digestive issues. (Nothing bad, but just couldn’t keep running, alas.)

Nice Saturday morning run with the guys. A little breezy so I had to keep zipping and unzipping the jacket I’d brought along; glad I had it, all in all.

For a variety of reasons (gym closing, massive rain due to Hurricane Sandy, trick-or-treaters, that sort of thing) my only weekday run this week was on a treadmill Thursday morning. Better than nothing!

Got most of the running group (Ben, John, Stephanie, Steve) to come up to my neck of the woods and we did a run all around my stomping grounds. The first four were with just Ben, John, and Steve, and we ran along the bottom edge of the old Walter Reed Medical Center, up 16th St to the border with Maryland, then down Eastern Ave and Blair Rd back home. Picked up Stephanie and ran 8 miles through Takoma Park and Sligo Creek Park and back; dropped off John and did two final miles down into Manor Park and back. Stephanie’s running the NYC Marathon next weekend and John’s recovering from an injury, so we had all sorts of different mileages and a bit of a taper going on, but it was all good. Lovely weather, good scenery, fantastic company.

Ran to Washington Sports Club and back this morning with Charlie, which worked out well, although I was a little more winded by the end of the weights than normal. A nice way to start and end the run, and only one second off on the paces between the two runs. Also, new shoes.

Just wasn’t quite feeling this run. Never bad, possibly the humidity, but just never quite got into a groove despite the nice company.
