What a beautiful early evening in Georgetown, TX, with temps about 96 degrees, humid, and some clouds building in the sky. I believe the wind and clouds are pushed here from Hurricane Dolly down on the Gulf coast. I was ready at 5:00 PM to meet Tom at Lake Georgetown, but he called and said he had been delayed with a meeting, so I took off alone. I ran across the dam and then looped back up over the dam down to the trail and back across the front of the dam and then back up the trail to the start which is 3 miles. I repeated the loop again and the wind picked up and clouds shaded out the sun. The winds whipped up artistic designs on Lake Georgetown as I ran across the dam (1 mile) which was very entertaining. A nice run where I pushed the heart rate up to 171 at the end of the dam mile, and up to 167 coming up the hill from below the dam. Just a nice run, peaceful by myself, but nice. |
