Antsy pants

I need to rest after a long run, but after a while, I get seriously antsy pants. Broke out the bikes to do a big loop around the park. It wasn't much of a real workout, but it got the muscles warm and moving, and got some serious perfectly fall temp-ed wind on my face. I was flying around the park. There's nothing like running it a few dozen times to make my biking feel so speedy.

The hardest hill, which used to be the kind of hard that made me think I'd have to get up and walk it, is now nothing to think twice about. I didn't whine and I wasn't winded.

I'm so looking forward to more perfect fall weather and more of the fallen, trampled leaves smell.
