I run this town…

…when I can!

Oh sweet UPS track…It was great to see this track again. I put many many miles on this track.

I was excited to hit the roads of Tacoma this afternoon. It was maybe 62 degrees, a far cry from the 100 degree temps I have been facing back home. I set out with only 3 miles on the Garmin. I had no plan  or route in mind but I knew I wanted to just run and I needed to keep it short and stay away from 30th and 36th streets. Hill work is NOT on the agenda three days out from my upcoming Half Marathon. I enjoyed every moment of my time on my familiar paths. I actually made a point to run by one of my favorite corners just to see the beautiful yard and flowers. Oh don’t worry, I took a picture.

I am looking forward to another easy run tomorrow!

So many exciting things in store this week and weekend!! I can’t wait to see everyone and meeting so many new bloggies!

    I love running in places I haven't run in a long time. I love that area of Tacoma...brings me back to high school and early college. :) Have a great time here in WA!
