Running with a Garmin

The thing I like about running with a Garmin is that you can just go whereever and have immediate feedback as to the distance that you ran. I wasn't sure where I was going when I headed out today at lunch. I wound up running from Timberloch down Grogans Mill to South Millbend. I crossed Grogans Mill then went behind the WAC and followed trails to the Nature Trail entrance on North Millbend. I took North Millbend back to Grogans Mill and Timberloch for a nice 5 1/4 mile run.

I don't usually see but one or two people during these weekday lunch runs and I was sorta counting on that today. I was running late this morning and just made sure that I had one each of my running gear. When I went down to the fitness center to change, I realized I had burgundy shorts, purple socks, and orange shoes (and a white shirt). It was a truly a fashion police alert and of course I saw more people on the trails today than I've seen combined since I started running at lunch weekdays back in October. C'est la vie!
