Oh, the heat

Car thermometer registered 101 today. I felt energetic, though, so I went out for the usual 6-mile loop from the house, into Rock Creek Park via the Davenport hill, and down the long, winding descent to Beach Drive. 1.5 miles on Beach brings you to Military Road and the Park Police station. Ascend back up to the stables, out to Military Road and back home. That's the reverse of my usual loop. The water bottle was empty by the time I hit the police station and it was a thirsty slog from there. Not feeling so energetic, anymore!
