On a cold windy morning, I try and dodge some of Chicago's windiness and run to the Bloomingdale Trail - the 606. Unfortunately, while I was able to miss running into a strong headwind, I did get caught in the middle of a downpour. The rain was cold and heavy, but I nevertheless would have continued running, but I saw a couple of patches of lightning, so I thought better of it and headed home. 

This run overall had about 4 sections: getting to the trail, down the trail, back on the trail, and heading home. Each leg was about the same distance - a little under 3 miles. In total, I had 11.2 miles according to Strava. And because I was able to get out and back without injury and without getting sick from the cold rain, I consider it a success, even if I was hoping for a longer run for my Saturday long run.

Thanks for watching. Leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!
