Very sunny 40-degree day;  visited the Mt Tom Reservation with a visit to Little Mount Tom as the plan.  All told, I finished with 9.9-miles along some wonderful trails.

Also, on this day, in 2005, I completed a Northern Nipmuck Marathon with Tippi and Wuzzam.  Total time was 6:28:18, and it was my 30th marathon and Tippi's 6th.  Wuzzam had Summer out for the event with us as well.  Hard to beat a day when a few guys can run with their dogs.

Effort #50,  The tenth piece from the July 21st, 2019  "Heat of the Day Session" by the Dark Heart Duo, "Light Shining Through".

Cold and damp today, drove out to McLean to run a "hard" 3.6-mile loop in 33:22 (6.5 mph).  Ended up with a total of 3.9-miles with the short cool-down.

A visit to Williamsburg Woodland Trails as well as the Trustees of Reservations, via Unquemonk (Big View) and Petticoat Hill for 6-miles.

The Locke's Loop at Petticoat Hill roughed in at 1.4-miles, and the Big View Loop was right around 2-miles I believe, for prosperity.
