From Northfield Rd., Greenwich Park, to Old Georgetown Rd. to Beech Dr. to to Singleton Dr. to Bulls Run Pkwy., to the trail along the school to Bradmore Dr. to Folkstone Rd. to Hartsdale Ave. to Heampstead Ave. to McKinley St. to Garfield St., to Roosevelt St., to the trail at Jefferson St. to Northfield Rd. It was 43 F with steady light rain and drizzle. I had been feeling pretty tired all day from not sleeping enough. This was wearing on me along with the added resistance of wearing my rain suit and running into the wind. Overall it made me feel better but I felt like it was taking a long time to cover the first 3 miiles.

From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to the Bethesda Metro Station. It was about 40 F.

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 Elm St. in Bethesda. Max had started basketball practice today so I met both Max and Peggy for dinner. On the run, I didn't fee so good starting out but I got better once I headed down hill and kept it up. I ran carrying a backpack. It was in the mid-50s F. Peggy gave me a ride home.

From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to Madison St. on my road bicycle with Max on his bicycle, then back to Northfield Rd. towing Max's bicycle, then to the Bethesda Metro Station. It was about 41 F.

Washington, D.C. From 14th & Independence Ave., SW, down The Mall along Independence Ave. and the Reflecting Pool to the Lincoln Memorial, to Ohio Dr. to the Rock Creek Trail, to Calvert St., to Connecticut Ave., to the Cleveland Park Metro Station. It was warmer than I thought it'd be. I was overdressed in sweat bottoms and top. I ran with a backpack too so that helped warm me up more. Like the other week, I felt good the whole first mile. After that, tiredness set in. I was (35:28 at the Woodley Park Metro Station. This was slower than last time but I didn't have a backpack last time.
