First leg from home to Spanish school: http://www.runningmap.com/?id=849710

When I left the park, I was at about 37 minutes but I'm not sure at all what milage I ran in the park because i was doing crazy loops and taking random turns, going in the direction of whatever I found most interesting.

Puerto de Alcalá en el Retiro to the C1 bus stop just past Plaza de Espana: http://www.runningmap.com/?id=849711

I felt awesome for the first leg of this run from home to the school because the directions were easy to follow so I could just get on a road and keep going. After a slow warm-up period, I really enjoyed just cruising through new areas of the city. In the retiro, I greatly appreciated the shade of huge trees as the midday Madrid heat was definitely getting to me. I wanted to add on some more after exploring the park but didn't have the energy to run all the way home so I ran through Gran via to the bus. So happy to get a longer run in!
