A new long route

A new long route today. A beautiful Spring day. I went out to Ogletree to the end, then up Moore's Mill to Samford and back via Gay St. I put together a playlist of some stuff plus a lot of slack key guitar (which I'm trying to learn how to play), then ran out of tunes and decided to add Meat Puppets II to my playlist. Sweet.

In spite of my team not winning the Super Bowl, I'm still rather gleeful mostly because of this sunshiny playlist. Also, it's a bright beautiful day out there, and I got in a decently long run. Which I had to do, if I'm going to try to meet my goal in this lengthened but short month. I ran up into Grove Hill, out to Moore's Mill, up to Samford, and back via Gay. I also got the Map My Run app to work, so I was able to get an accurate distance and pace (but no splits, who needs splits, anyway).

Back in Auburn, going long

Back on the road after a few days off again, after getting back to Auburn.
Down Wright's Mill to Ogletree and back up Moore's Mill to University. One of my big loops. The inspirational nature of the mix got me to turn left at the stop sign and keep going. At least now I feel a little more confidence in getting to do that half marathon.
