Washington, D.C. Having a rare opportunity for a date night with Peggy, I planned ahead so I could run at lunch time--another rare ocurrance lately. I was hungry well before going out which is one of the main reasons that I don't run at lunchtime. Weather and time/distance limitations are other factors in my not running at lunch much. I did what I call the Memorial Tour from my office (From 14th & Independence Ave. SW, past the Tidal Basin, and Jefferson Memorial over 14th St. Bridge to the Mt. Vernon Trail, past Lady Bird Johnson Memorial to Memorial Bridge past the Lincoln Memorial, along Independence Ave., over the Kutz Bridge, to 14th St. to C. St. SW. to 13th St. SW). Temperatures were in the 60's F. Though I started pretty strong and felt quicker early, I was tiring before getting to Memorial Bridge (<2.6 miles). I could have used a bathroom along the way too.
