Comments: I wanted to get my run in today so it would not ‘hang’ over my head tomorrow. So after spending 3 hours at the Zoo, and an hour in the car, I ran at home. I wasn’t sure if I was gonna go 6 or 8. It just depended on how I felt. Everything was working fine, so 8 it was.
There are some drivers out there that are either blind or just plain ignorant. I mean, I don’t expect them to drive on the other side of the road when they come towards me, but geesh, do give me some running room! Twice during my run I had to seek refuge in the median.
However there was one driver, driving the way I was heading who slowed down and yelled encouraging words to me, and quite a few gave me a friendly handwave (yes, with all fingers extended). I do missed my early morning runs when I had to road to almost myself.
