Running in, around, and away from Ann Arbor.

bugs bunnies

even best laid plans fail, so i was left to run all by myself yesterday. seriously, i can't remember the last time i motivated to run alone. i was feeling a little wound up from sitting in front of the computer all day so a run was definitely in order.

it was actually a really nice evening albeit a smidgen muggy. i ran to gallup park and along the way saw four bunnies. i guess catching a glimpse of a rabbit is sort of a rarity - you always get that "awww, look a little bunny rabbit!" reaction. that was my first thought, until i saw another, and another, and then another. and then it wasn't so special anymore. it was more like, "get out of my way, you rascally rabbit."

running in the evening is nice - the sun's down and the weather nice has cooled down. it's actually my favorite time of the day to run. except the bugs. they weren't technically noseeums, since they weren't they biting kind, they were probably gnats. but i couldn't really see 'um, until i got home and realized i had all these little splattered, gnatty bugs stuck to my shirt, my neck, and my arms. it was really gross. or as martin bashir says, "it was disturbing."

my apologies for leaving p-loop high and dry last night, but glad to hear it was a good run! ecshelto and i ran this a.m. and i found it a bit painful. super high humidity coupled w/ not quite drinking enough h2o yesterday...ugh.

anyway! looking forward to tomorrow morning's run when it's a chilly 58 degrees.
