Found a new loop in the neighborhood.  Part of the loop use to be too narrow for me to run on but since the addition of new houses, the walking trail was extended.  Now I only have a small narrow section to run, aka "the Hail Mary" curve.  I much prefer loops to running out and back again.

Ran the rail trail.  I had a 10am dr's appt so didn't get out until 10:30 or so.  Finished up 9 just before the rain started.  I wanted to do 13 but I had a ton of things to do at home, beckoning me.  I wish I could have started the run earlier.  I changed my next dr's appt to 8:45am so it wouldn't be right in the middle of the morning.  Hope it helps next time.

The rail trail is all flat exept for a hill that goes up to some soccer fields.  I ran the hill and wouldn't let myself walk at the top.  My phylosophy is "why run the hill if you are going to walk at the top", kinda defeats the purpose.
