Memorial Park...yesterday was a slow day!

Since the office group was talking about going to Happy Hour tomorrow after work, I decided it best to run again today to keep up with, or more truthfully begin the Indy mini training. Instead of parking on the main thoroughfare and fearing crossing the street, I ventured further into the park only to find it packed with walkers, joggers, runners, and a few bikers. I almost didn't think I'd actually get a parking space. Last night there was a plethora of spaces and my estimate of "a lot of people" was only a mere fraction of the number of people and canines I saw roaming around. It was about 6PM when I finally found a spot and got geared up to run. Compared to the night before, this was the place to be! It was almost like running the mini dodging people the whole way, except some of them were coming at me. By the time I finished running, it was dusk, and the trail lights were on. But that wasn't stopping the cars coming in and the people taking off for an evening run. I was going to take some pictures since the sun was out and it was 75 degrees, but I got a little sidetracked with the whole parking issue. Rather, I included a link that shows the expanse of the park (first), and then the link talking more about the park itself.
