Busy Pathways on Sunday
"Nice woollen kilt is all one needs on a mild winter's day"
On Saturday, Don and I passed through Harris Park, at first heading north towards Blackfriars Bridge. We met a dog named 'Fox' and noticed the river was running high. After we crossed the bridge we headed south for home, knowing full well we had halfway to go and still half of the world's problems left to solve. That being said, it is amazing how many good solutions we came up with by the time we reached our front porches in Wortley Village. All was well with the world.
"Carry On Walk #4 was a long one"
On Sunday I tackled an eight-miler on my own and reached my turnabout spot near Springbank dam before the rain came down. Fortunately, I was dressed for wet weather and made it home - in under three hours - without having to swim. Front crawl is not my strong suit. Neither is colour-co-ordination but I still hold it in high regard.
By the numbers for the day:
8 miles in under three hours
estimated speed - 3.16 miles per hour (19 minutes per mile)
one blister for the first time (related to my choice of socks, I bet)
