Twenty-six today, solo on the Ox road sidepath here in NOVA. Air was clearer or maybe it's because the trail is not lined with foliage on both sides. Saturday on the W&OD was sheer misery.

Twenty-three (equivalent) on the elliptic waiting for the rash to subside. Desitin seems to be working. Watching NASCAR....boring. I miss the trees and (sadistically) the hills.

Eighteen miles on the W&OD Trail in northern Virginia. Gosh that was so much better than Lake Accotink and Burke Lake trail. Too bad even guys 50# heavier than I were passing me! :(
