October 14 Run: Meet at Pump House at the Waterfront for a GAP Run

Next week we will run on the GAP trail, so let's meet at the Pump House on the far side of Waterfront near trailhead past Lowe's.  We want to run to the part where you can see the Kennywood rides from the trail and Edgar Thompson Works from across the river.

This past week was a mostly flat run for the runners and a somewhat hilly (steppy) walk for the walkers.  The walkers tell me they discovered the 15th Street Steps and what is known as the Church Route.  The run was through the South Side city streets down to the Terminal Building and then along the riverfront trail back to Big Dog Coffee which was warm, comfy, and peaceful as always.  We sat on the patio and discussed the pros and cons of various activity-tracking devices, including the Fitbit, Apple Watch, and the lesser-known Apple Health app on most iPhones (it is the one that is just a picture of a heart).  We were overwhelmed and came to no consensus about which one to use, but we agreed "enough with the data!"   We also discussed "Stripper Names" (First name is your first pet, Last name is the very first street you lived on), and agreed that "Bosses are so bad!"
