easy day

Instead of my usual pre-plotted loop, I decided to just go out the door and go at a nice easy conversational pace and head wherever my run took me. I ended up going out for about 45 minutes winding my way mostly around empty desolate streets of red hook. The weather today was my ideal running weather. Cool, slightly breezy, slightly overcast. I decided that the big pier that stretches pretty far out into the water behind the ikea in red hook may be one of the most peaceful spots in the city. It helps though if you keep your back to the ikea so you can try and pretend it is non-existent.
