I've got a fair bit of running in during the last few days. On Saturday, I decided to go for a short run (probably around 3.5) in Central Park before Hurricane Irene hit. I wasn't alone. There were a lot of people running, biking, walking, or taking carriage rides around the park. It was gray and cool, with a sprinkle or rain for about five minutes but that was it. I should have gone longer, but I didn't.
On Monday, I did, but not by much.
I do a lot of running in Central Park, but I've never run around Central Park - until Monday morning, that is. I decided to try it. I kept the park to my left and just went around. It's a (much) flatter course that inside the park. But, the sidewalk is made up of these hexagon-shaped paving stones, that are actually not that fun to run on. I really had to watch my step. And when I hit the southeast corner of the park, my Garmin lost satellite, again. I'm really fearing for the health of my Garmin!
Today's run was a run around the Resevoir. When I lived in DC, my go-to run was running from home to the Washington Monument and back. I'm thinking the Resevoir is going to end up as my go-to run. I need one.
