Feb 7 Run: Entrance to Frick Park at S. Homewood and Reynolds

Roye will lead us around and/or through Frick Park depending on the weather - which will be gorgeous.

Despite several suggestions to skip the run and just have coffee we ventured out into the crispy cold morning and in the end were glad of it. The sun was rising and the mostly full moon (96%) was still large and luminous as we traveled over the snow covered river path at the Waterfront. We found the labyrinth and walked some of its path. It is perfectly placed framed by a rail road bridge with the old Carrie Furnace hulking in the distance - well worth a visit. On our way back we chased a barge down the river. It was cold but it was worth it.

Over a cozy coffee session we discussed anaerobic vs aerobic exercise (excuse the use of Wikipedia it was the most targeted reference I found) as well as the new art exhibit at the Frick Art museum, 1934, which was highly recommended by Wendy and David. You can find a nice article about it in today's Post Gazette. We also welcomed back Aimee!!
