Towpath Run

May 9, 2012 — Leave a comment

I’m on a short business trip to Princeton, NJ and squeezed in a quick run this evening after work.

I did an out and back on the Delaware and Raritan Canal towpath, starting/finishing at the Millstone Aqueduct entrace at Lake Carnegie.

Weather-wise, it was a slightly muggy, 70 degrees with overcast skies. It had rained the night before and this morning, so the path was damp with occational puddles, but it was a nice run.  This was my first run after three days of post-half marathon rest. I’m still a bit stiff (sitting with some ice as I write this), but it felt good to run.

As is the case, I forgot to take photos along the way, so these are some I shot after the run:
