Decided to go for a run today since I’m pretty sure it’s not happening tomorrow. Despite a late start, the weather outside was so mild (for this time of year in DC, it seems to normally be in the high 90s) that it worked out well. Ran through Sligo Creek Park and back, then up to Silver Spring to meet Charlie at the WSC (where he was working out) to take a shower and run some errands from there.

But most importantly, while in Sligo Creek, I came across the most awesome cyclist I’ve seen in quite a while.

It was a toasty morning today, so I broke out one of the sleeveless shirts to try and compensate a bit. On the bright side, saw Blair out with her running buds near the Lincoln Memorial. I also decided discretion was the better party of valor and that a 7th mile just wasn’t happening. (Plus there’s still spin class tonight.)
