I was feeling guilty about missing the Saturday run so I hit Greenlake on Sunday. The walk around the inside track is only 2.8 miles so you have to go a little past your starting point and then back to hit the 3 miles goal. What I should have done was make the loop twice but I was anxious to get the the farmers market in Ballard. I just adore a good Farmers market.
Greenlake is such a beautiful area. The lake was already hopping with paddle boats and families spread out enjoy a late Sunday morning. The weather was pretty darn perfect at noon- low 70's. There are enough dogs and people to watch to make the walk wonderful. I didn't run but I'm planning on another trip this week with a little running.
Next Saturday we have a 2 hour walk/run scheduled with the group which means about 8 miles for me (yes I'm a slow 14-15 minute pace). I haven't done more than 7 miles to date so I need to get ready!
