atlanta by foot
Great runs this weekend! Man, I needed ’em too, especially after last weekend less than desirable ones!!
Saturday ran a solid 6 thru Brookhaven/Peachtree. Today, Sunday, met up w/ Jeff at a Starbucks in Midtown and ran all over for 13.6 awesome miles. Weather was fantastic. 7am start. 65 degrees! 65% humidity. WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE IT MADE! This was the best long run I have had in a looong time. Felt strong the entire way. Ran through Midtown, downtown, Cabbagetown, Reynoldstown, Edgewood, Candler Park, Druid Hills, and Virginia-Highland neighborhoods. A good look thru the city and into some parts I hadn’t see in a while. A wonderful breeze swept by us a few times. Legs felt better than they have in a long time. THANK GOD!!
After showering, Jeff and I went to get some grub at Radial Cafe. Sat outside and enjoyed conversation, coffee and delicious food.
Hope we have more of this weather! Hope everyone had great weekend training and otherwise. Stay Strong!

Great! Glad to hear you bounced back and had some good runs. I can’t believe you had 65 degrees and 65% humidity in Atlanta in August. That’s awesome.
