So many decisions could have been bad!

Nov. 13 run - Butler St. entrance to Allegheny Cemetery

Next up: a run through Allegheny Cemetery and environs, starting at the Butler Street entrance (around 47th, there should be on street parking around there) – we may return to the Espresso a Mano café afterwards, or else the usual Commonplace – group will decide.

Taking advantage of the added hour and more daylight, our Schenley Park autumn run was a classic: cool, colorful, and bright with a sizeable crowd. Two new runners joined us, and we had a visit from Ian! Après-run discussions were lively as usual: we seem to be getting louder and louder, and hopefully they won’t throw us out any time soon. Apps, movies, biking, books (GoT of course, and I promised I would mention Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy, a marvel for young teens and everyone else.) Also endorsed: Terra Cafe around Morgantown WV near a great bike trail. I can’t recall much else mainly because I have been distracted by this article in yesterday’s NYTimes that will have us talking for months – suffice it to say that we have some running pioneers among us.
