Run 105 - Granger Avenue

August 29, 2023

It’s Tuesday so a 7-mile run, or close to it, is on the agenda.  I got started a bit later than usual, about 7:45am, but the neighborhoods I’m covering today have lots of shade so it is a comfortable run ahead of the 95 degrees predicted for today.  I made up a route that continues on from where I left off, east of 32nd Street and north of King Ave.


This subdivision (Harvest Granger?) is unique in that there are no sidewalks along the streets, rather, the developer put in a green space and sidewalks behind the houses.  The streets are all curvy with lots of dead ends so having a map made sure I didn’t miss anything or get lost.  The one change I made when I was out there was that up on the top of the map it shows me going out and back on Windmill Circle.  Instead, when I got to the southeast end of the street, I turned west on Canyon which was a bit shorter and I didn’t have to do that short out-and-back on Wheatstone.


At one of the dead end streets.



I have noticed that pretty much every dead end street has a fire hydrant at the end.  I usually do my turn around at them.  This is on the south end of Windmill Circle and that’s Big Sky Elementary School in the background.



At 32nd and Monday.


The cars behind this guy are probably wondering why he’s not going.


Along Monad.



On Windmill Circle.



There a couple dogs going berserk in this house and one, a medium-sized dog, was jumping with both feet against that window which I could see flexing a bit.


A nice little park between Slolum and Marathon at 37th.



At Monad and 36th.



This is on King Ave. and I’ve heard it’s going to another traver park with 275 units.


That’s it, just short of 7 miles.
