dolphins_log--{This walk took place Friday, September 3}--
I've missed a few weekday walks since the 10,000 steps challenge ended at work. So I was a little surprised to be a touch out of step. ..that or I did get a little flu-ish on Wednesday after all. Or maybe it was the weather jumping up to 84 degrees when it was projected to be 75. In any case, this walk had me somewhat out of breath.
This was an 11k walk. Initially I was planing on giving it a 5 because it felt a little unpleasant, but now that I've gone over the photos, and I've had a chance to reflect, I have to revise it up to maybe even a 3. If this was a cool summer sunny summer day this would have been a very nice walk.
Of note was the payout destination of the museum district. Next year, when antique row has finished it's gentrification it will be fun to explore, and Broadway near the convention center is a great restaurant and pedestrian road. For my friends point of reference, this the old NorWesCon part of Tacoma, though they have a shiny new convention center now.
There are also some fine parks and even a glass greenhouse conservatory.
Then there is Stadium High School.... Holy Hogwarts!
