Saturday mornings are becoming my time for long runs. Today I did a nine mile route down Summit Avenue from Cretin Avenue to the Cathedral and back. Some thoughts and obervations:
1. There's a little park on Summit Avenue and Ramsey Street that overlooks downtown Saint Paul and the river. It offers an amazing view early in the morning.
2. A lot of people go to the Cathedral around 8 a.m. on Saturday for mass.
3. When you are running and thirsty, all of the sprinklers going off present quite a temptation. I think I would have been shunned by the other runners if I tried to get a drink.
4. I ran by the Governor's Mansion, but didn't see T-Paw. He's probably off giving a speech in New Hampshire or something.
5. A long run in the morning makes Chris sleepy all afternoon.
