Running in the dark again - Sat. Nov. 18

Needed to get out today as next week will be busy; use the weekend to the max. Well, sort of: I wasn't feeling like going hard or far, but wanted to add some miles and see how a few more hills would be. Route was the Old Enfield one, but I really noticed the hills. Started out onto 9, along to Bay, down there to the bottom of Allen, then Allen all the way, uphill to 9, across and uphill to the top, then down to cross 202 and up hill again. Enfield downhill to 9, loop left round the tractor dealer, down Jabish across the river and up hill to the town common (*really* felt that one) -- then it's down hill all the way. Stopped the clock at the big mart, thus:

Time: 47:53
Speed: 8:49
Distance: 6.78 miles

Comments: that pushes the weekly total over 20 miles for the first time in AGE! Nice, but my ankle regions are sore and my right knee is in need of some supportive maintenance. Time to get my road bike out for a couple of rides this week maybe.
