Mon 2006 Oct 9, 8 miles in the park, 47 deg

LE Regional Park 8.0 mi, 1:09:52, pace 8:44. Wanted to take it easy this morning and it worked! What a lovely, exhilarating run along the lake and the railroad tracks and through the park. A hawk screeched at me from a fence post as I entered the park, then flew off, discretion being the better part of valor for her. Nice comfortable pace, cool with a little breeze from the north, fall leaves brightening as the sun rose behind the clouds. Is this what running is really about? Maybe so. Slight pain in right knee went away as I ran. Calf muscles are yapping a little, but didn't cramp up. They need more stretches and a little massage.
