Follow the leaves

November 19, 2017 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: gusty winds and chilly despite 50s

Comments:
The wind had started last night, so not as many leaves were left to fall as one would have hoped. Leah and I were going to run together, but she got pulled into a humanitarian event and I pushed on and ran without her, hoping for a big leaf day. I went up through the usual Chevy Chase, MD neighborood and after a dry start, caught a flurry of leaves and tulip poplar seeds so as I was at 11 about 18 minutes into the run. Other than one other good chase in Barnaby Woods, I was leafless the rest of the run. I had cross back into DC on Brookville and took the actual Barnaby Woods to Oregon bike path with a return past Lafayette. Frustrating, but I'm now at a season total of 86. It would be nice to get to triple digits in this otherwise frustrating leaf season.
