17.1 Miles: New trail

Today I ran 17.1 miles around town. I'm trying to pick up the pace a bit since my next two official runs are shorter ones (10 and 3.1 miles) but also wanted to do a longer run and 17 seemed to be a good blend of both. It was mid-70's and sunny at the end. It felt warm in the Sun and ok in the shade.

I didn't have much of a plan for where I was running today. It was mainly based on whatever way was easy to go at each intersection based on the traffic. I did run across a new great shaded trail today at the park (the loop between miles 7 and 8 on the map and photo above).  


Up next: I might be able to get a run in tomorrow. Friday is shaping up to be a 10-11 mile run.
