Downtown Seattle. We ran at a little park near Yogurtland, which is near Panera Bread. Lisa, Nicole, and I carpooled from Lisa's home in Kent. 5:30 p.m. we left Kent to Seattle. We ran from our parking spot, semi near Yogurtland to the park close by. We ran maybe about 5-6 laps around the park. We first ran around the outskirts for 2-3 times near the street, then the rest of the laps we ran on the gravel trail, longest route, past the basketball hoops. It was perfect weather for a run, 60s, sun shinning! After we ran we got ourselves a nice big container of Yogurtland yogurt. mm mmm mmm What a great evening!

Game Farm Park. 5:15 a.m. Gate wasn't even open this time so parked in the extra lot before the gate. There was the most beautiful sunrise colors, pink and orange as I ran into the park! I wished I had my camera with me! Good run. Tryed to run slightly faster. 3 laps around park, includes run to the park from lot, and on way back just ran straight and opposite way into parking lot to get there faster.

Hemlock Rd. 5:15 a.m. Today I felt like just something fast so I ran from my home to Hemlock Rd, my usual route. I just added and extra run down 20th street to the right out and back to make a full 3 miles. Usually I'd be just a little bit short. My route review again is running down Hemlock, to Scenic, then past the Casino and back on the Rd to the left to meet up with Hemlock again. Then back to the Auburn Way S to my apt (that is the part I hate running along the highway is a bit scary and ackward) It was nice weather for a run even though cloudy the temp was good and I didn't need my long sleeve for too long. I didn't feel scared running this route because it is getting so light out now! I didn't see anyone walking around; just a few cars drove past me.
