Fourth of July

We were up late last night watching the fireworks in Ithaca so I didn't get up as early as I wanted. When I did get up, at 7:00, it was raining hard so I decided to put my run off until a little later in the day.

I left the house about 10:45 and it took a while to feel comfortable. But I eventually developed a rhythm and finished the 3 miles without stopping in 33:54. Not too bad.

It was hot and humid and there's not much to report. Masses of those yellow flowers everywhere. Cows were out. I saw a big caterpillar on the road.

Tomorrow is the first mid-week mileage increase; I'm to run 4 miles instead of three which means that I have to allow a little more time and I have to find a new route. Then it's back to 3 miles again on Thursday.
