I was a little under dressed with just shorts and a long sleeve t shirt but I put in three miles anyway. I started out into the wind so that when I turned around I was with the wind. Otherwise, even with the best technical gear you turn into a refrigerator.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a title=\"DSCN7797\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/28381904@N06\/33157312976\/in\/dateposted\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/1\/707\/33157312976_999a7c1eb3_z.jpg\" alt=\"DSCN7797\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">A little bit more open, still on east bank<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>So coming south on the west bank was great, I was very comfortable and was able to enjoy the run.

Last Sunday I ran in a Quarter Marathon with some pretty good uphills and downhills and finished without any problems so this week on my weekly run I let myself run a lot more than usual. The thing about running is that running, even running as slow as I do, is a lot more fun than walking.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tulsa Running\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.garmin.com\/modern\/activity\/embed\/1598758364\" width=\"465\" height=\"500\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The thing about by new gym at the Methodist church downtown is that I can go change there and then drive down to the river and run my run and then drive back to the gym and shower and get clean clothes on rather than showing up at home all stinky, smelly, and hungry.<\/p>\n<p>As you can tell, I am rather spoiled.
