Thursday’s run got scooted up to Wednesday due to work meetings for Steve, and such. Another beautiful morning, though. No complaints here!

Just me and Ben this morning, and Ben wanted to try running to our starting point from his home on H Street. (About a mile and a half away.) It worked out well; I ran my mile before he got there, we did three and a bit together, and then after running up Capitol Hill with him (on his way back) I turned around and finished up the last mile by myself. Gorgeous weather today, and we ran into Rick Weber at the end, which was a pleasant surprise.

Met the group this morning back at the old routine; run a mile by myself, then four more with them. Estimated my distance for the first (based on where the GPS normally beeps at me), then hit splits off of Steve’s watch for the other four, since my GPS has been having battery issues and is now getting fixed under its warranty. So times might be off a tiny bit. (Also the group elected for no walk break after mile 4, which is why they were a bit peppier than normal. I’m good with that!)

Everyone cancelled on me for this morning’s run, so I figured I could set the alarm half an hour later since I didn’t need to drive downtown to meet them, and would just run by myself. Somehow that meant that instead of starting at 6, I started at 7:30. Why yes, I do need a running group, if only to get my lazy ass in gear.

Still adjusting to warmth and (more crucial today) humidity. Hello my old enemy.
