After staying up a bit later than planned to write a college rec, I got to bed around midnight and awoke at 4:30 to fit in a run before our 8am flight home from California. Mostly, I can't let a visit to the San Francisco pass without a run in Golden Gate Park. My watch alarm was already programed for the 4:30 beep from the last time I'd used it in August to beat the same 6am departure to SFO. Took Anza from 20th to Park-Presidio, up to the park, and along Kennedy, circling the enormous Christmas-lit tree at the Panhandle junction, and coming back the way I'd gone. 16 minutes outbound and 14 minutes for the return. Pace built naturally and not much effort was made to speed up. I did loop up to Balboa and back to ensure I got 4 miles. Felt pretty good and enjoyed some naps on the plane ride home.
