After running about 30 miles last week I wanted to start this week with a shorter run today. Instead of my usual 5-miler I designed a route that would give me a bit less than 4 through some curvy roads. The streets are names after the Greek Olympics: Decathlon, Gymnast, Grecian, Spartan, Gladiator, Marathon, Relay, Discus, Torch, etc.

Run 111 - The Olympics
September 11, 2023
As the map shows, it’s sort of circular. The streets in the upper right as mostly single-family homes, a development continuing from the one of the east. There are no sidewalks on the streets as they are located behind the homes in green spaces. The neighborhoods transition as they move to the southwest, going from duplexes and patio homes to larger apartment buildings.
That was it. It was a bit chilly at the start, about 50 degrees, which felt pretty good once I got a mile into the run.
