Today's "Run"

I put run in quotes because I walked as much as I ran, averaging about 14 minute miles for 7.2 miles, on a very hilly route. With no races scheduled in the near future, I have tried to make December and January recovery months -- lowering mileage a bit, and running just for fun on Saturdays. I tried a new route today, heading out on Churchville Avenue, then down Shutterlee Mill Road and then, by mistake, on the Wilson Parkway (oops! really bad idea!). Runing on the Parkway didn't seem bad because of the wide shoulder; getting off or crossing it, however, was extremely tricky as it's a limited access highway four lanes wide. I loved this house on Shutterlee Mill Road, across from Thomas W. Dixon school.
