Walking Log 23 August 2008

The cloud cover was very heavy today. It was almost like walking just before the sun comes up although in actuality the sun had been up for more than an hour when I started out. It was quite nice. There was a lot of moisture in the air and I ended up taking my glasses off before I reached the first mile mark because I get fogging them up. I was soaking up the deliciously refreshing breeze in my face on the way back. Can a breeze be delicious? I think so.

There were a lot of people out today. (It was a Saturday.) A number of times, the trail was congested with walkers, runners and bikers all trying to get past one another without a collision. I had a good power walk though. Not nearly as difficult as yesterday’s seemed. Maybe because I had less weighing on my mind. . .
