Windy!

Well there were warnings of 50mph winds but I decided it much faster to just run from my house then go to the gym, change, run on a dreadmill and then get changed and get back home.

And so out I went. I went a new way because I noticed that the wind was completely out of the west, so I went slightly west from my house, and then farther south than I normally do for a 4 mile run (I have a specific set of blocks that I usually run).

The very best part of this run was the fact that I knew I would be short by a little bit by my house if I turned to go back north when I wanted to. So I went just one little block east, and I'm not kidding when I say, I hit 4.00 miles right in front of my house. I mean it's the little things that make me happy, and judging distances by Chicago street blocks is one of them.
