From the Silver Spring Metro Station, to 2nd Ave. to Grace Church Rd., and following the Georgetown Branch Trail over the road portion, (Talbot Ave. Pennsylvania Ave., Kansas Ave. and Stewart Ave.) to the unpaved portion, to Woodmont Ave. in Bethesda, to Edgemore Ln. at the Bethesda Metro Station. Going up the initial hill from Colesville Rd. I felt a bit tired but after that I felt okay. It was really hard to tell what pace that I was doing. The pavement started to bother my left calf a bit. I slowed when this would happen and it would seem to get better each time. At one point, moving to the side of the road for some cars, I turned my ankle on uneven pavement. It hurt for a little while but I shook it off. My right knee had some discomfort toward the end of the long run last weekend so it too seemed to hold me back today at one point. My legs were generally heavy feeling and I'm hoping that all of these aches and pains are just temporary stresses. I had to estimate my time since in the dark I must of hit a wrong button on my watch at some point.
