Figure 8

Grasshopper and I went for a run this evening to 1) try out the new shoes together; and 2) because I had a lot of rage stemming from the day at The Office (I'm just not going to rehash it here). Since it was his 'hood, it was his choice of route -- the Figure 8. Some of the approximate 7K loop cut through my favorite street to drive on in the autumn, a few hills (ick), trails to remind me of camp, and then a part of Toronto I've never really explored, the tony Rosedale area that features million dollar homes, manicured gardens, and expensive cars in every driveway before circling back into the Cabbagetown neighborhood just before the rain hit. A quick stretch, then some gossip. All better. Rage gone. Nice shoes.
