Weather today was running friendly. Went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek just after sunset. Ran 10 km super easy, I felt great and strong. I could have gone a couple of more miles longer if I had time. I guess I had entered running high state for the 1st time in a long time. #running

Another typhoon may come to our region early next week. Although I ran yesterday, I decided to get some running miles in today. Went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek. I felt heavy and sluggish. I cut it short at 8 km. Listened to Neil Young's "Harvest Moon" on my way home. #running

A nice sunny day. I cannot miss this good weather. Went out to the bike path along Sakaigawa River before the sunset. It was the 1st run in 5 days. Ran 14.2 km super easy. It was a bit longer than my regular midweek runs. On my way back, I listened to the new album by #Beabadoobee. #running

The strong thunderstorm kept me from going out for a run yesterday. I decided to get a bit more miles in today. Went out to Sakaigawa CR around the sunset and ran 13 km super easy. I could bear the warm weather, but the mugginess was brutal. The fruitstand is a sign of the end of summer. #running
The fruit stand along the bike path was open for business selling locally grown fruits such as grapes and pears.  It means the end of summer is around the corner.The 2 rivers join here and I entered to the bike path along Sakaigwa river.I accidentally splitted the running log into 2 segments.

News about the big quakes on the southern island had made me feel uneasy. I cannot keep watching TV for the updates. I needed to chill out and diverted my mind from the disaster. After I got a text from a friend in Kumamoto and knew his family were safe, I decided to go out for a run. #running

The footpath was deserted in the Sunday afternoon. I saw only a couple of dog walkers during the run.     Home

A late afternoon run on the bike path along Sakaigawa River. It was cloudy. The rainy season is almost here, and I don't want to miss a dry day. Ran 10 miles super easy. Stopped by at the co-op supermarket on my way home and got some groceries. Enjoyed feeling the outdoor air. #running
