A pleasant 3...err... 4 mile run

So, last night was scheduled for a nice 3 mile run, with an intent to take it slow.. So my dear reader - do you think I pulled it off?  Did my "plan-following" succeed this time?  Yes!!!! I am 4 for 4 this week! (Hey, resting on a rest day counts!)  I even went  a bit farther - doing 4.29 miles!

Yesterday was a stressful day in general  - so I needed a run.  I waited until after the kid's "Dad! I fell out of the boat" classes and headed out from home rather than running from the YMCA (I have yet  to find any nice running routes near the YMCA that don't involve more traffic that I like to go by).   In Binghamton NY, we don't have much - but we are fortunate to have a great walking bridge.  It was a car-bridge originally, so it is black top up the middle with wooden walkways on either side of the structure.  I love the "thump thump" of running across the wood planks, and I really enjoy the view up and down the river.
