Different day today! The humidity was still in the air this morning but it was clearing and it was a blue sky day. Gorgeous.
I ran part of the Terry Fox run in Palgrave on the rail trail trying to time my return with Tman and Goose who were going a bit slower and not as far. Tman set a PB again this year. He did 4km, and ran much of it. He was amazing! He was stoked too. Snarfed back 4 pancakes afterward :)

Picked up Goose and Bent in Hockley Valley where they had finished a long run up from the Tai Chi Centre. Drove Bent back to his van and then Tman, Goose and paddled a lap of Island Lake on a beautiful afternoon. We went a pretty good pace too. The geese definitely outnumbered the humans today. It was surprisingly quiet there today. Even saw a young deer right at the water's edge taking a drink! Cool.

Goose dropped me off on the 5th Line at the Tai Chi Centre and I rode home. Down Centreville Creek to Patterson, over to Humber Station then onto the rail trail, into Albion. Rode the pine trails in the north end. Couldn't believe how perfect they were. Not only were there torrential downpours yesterday several times, but there was a mt. bike race there. And there were no puddles, no mud, no ruts, not really even any wet places., and no bikers. I saw none. Just a few hikers going the wrong way on the bike single track. It was beautiful. I love mt biking. Or maybe I just love mt biking in Albion. It's so nice.
Then I biked hard down Duffy's home, mostly downhill in late afternoon sunshine - awesome :)

Very wet, muggy day. I had a helluva headache all day. Finally dragged myself outside hoping a little trundle might make me feel better. Jogged around the park/soccer fields and did feel a bit better.

Just enough time for a short run before cafeteria duty. Splendid day out there! Had a great run around Bolton Camp - felt fantastic! Amazing what a rest day can do :)

Another gorgeous late summer day. So I had to get out at lunch today again. Rode pretty hard up Mt. Wolfe, 12th concession, then across to the 11th of King? to Castlederg then back. Lots of hills but lots of great views too. Bits of gold and red are showing on some trees.

Commute and lunch hour ride - too nice out not to get out even if it was a short ride. It's the soft, shaggy side of summer now. Love September.
