Meet at the Penn Ave entrance of Allegheny Cemetery for a discovery run (that means we still don't really know where we are going) in this park-like historic cemetery. This entrance is just a few steps toward E. Liberty from the massive new Children's' Hospital.
For those who want to run to the run, meet at Wilkins and Shady at 6:30 AM (it is about 2.5 miles from there).
Today Roye did a formal repeat of the run to the "top of Pittsburgh" aka Robert E Williams Park. I wrote this the first time Roye took Wendy and I up there: "I do not have enough fresh adjectives to describe this view from the top of Pittsburgh - it is absolutely spectacular." And today was no exception - cool and a little misty, Pittsburgh looks its best spread out all around the rivers and green trees.
Paula TB kindly mapped this run. Check it out on MapMyRun
On our way up there, Jonathan spied what must be the only tomato plant on the grounds of the Cathedral of Learning (see if YOU can find it). On our way back we had to take a detour to avoid a very, large stray dog that Tom was sure he still saw when we were back on the ground at Phipps.
