Graduation day shortie -- Sat. May 15

Arrived home very late, so a slow start, arriving at graduation as the speeches were finishing, but in time to chat with folks and then spend the afternoon on campus doing the CHFA ceremony. Home very tired by 5:30, eat and nap, then walk Molly, so finally it was 7:30 before I could get out -- but I wanted to hit 40 miles for the week, so out I went. A lovely evening, and only aiming to stretch my legs a bit: down GeoHannum to Hamilton, then up Allen to 9 and down past Tilton's to the trail entrance on right: not feeling too aggressive, but chug up there okay, then at the top pick up pace on the main trail heading back to Allen, where I take a left to go up and over to 202, then home via VFW, fully warmed up and opening stride a bit. Stop clock just past the supermarket, thus:

Time: 45:00
Distance: 5.7 miles
Pace: 7:54s

Comment: the road miles were quick, after the first two, but the trail was very slow. Still, this brings me to 43 for the week, yay!
