nowalmartToday was the first of three days off in a row. This weekend was absolutely crazy, and I spent way too much time at work. This weekend I had slacked off on my running so I decided to make up for it today. Make up for it I did, too. I woke up around 11am, ate breakfast, talked to a roommate, and then headed out. I left about noon, I think. Halfway through the run I stopped at Whole Foods to pick up a bagel and a water. I looked around the store, as well, since I might go back tomorrow to pick up some supplies.
When I got back, the clock said it was 2pm. My closest guess is that I ran about eight miles, but I am not sure.
For anyone familiar with the Boston area, I started in Teele Square. I ran to Davis, and then on to Porter Square. I cut over to Mass. Ave and went down to Harvard Square. I crossed the river on JFK St./N. Harvard Street. I then took a left and followed the footpath to the Mass. Ave Bridge (with my slight detour to Whole Foods near Central Square). I then followed Mass. Ave all the way back to Alewife Brook Parkway and then back to my place.
What a lovely city. In addition to running along the Charles River, I got to run by Tufts, Harvard, BU, and MIT. It was a lot of fun.
Tomorrow I am planning on running again, but I might just head up to the local track and get some speedwork in.
