Headed down to the Mall (where my group was running a 10 miler) and timed my own run so that I finished around the same time as them. There was a huge storm last night so I had to do a little tree-dodging, but not too bad all things considered. The Smithsonian Folklife Festival’s tents got trashed though, and I saw my fair share of downed portapotties too. (Eek.) Even starting at 7am it was sure toasty, though, and it’s just going to get worse…
