By the road

I was out on my run, today being a 5.73km along the busy and high traffic roadside. It wasn't the best or the most conducive for a good run. I had to watch the on-coming vehicles speeding past me.

There were places where there's no side walks, only undulating stretches of weeds and grass. Nevertheless once I'm out on the road, I just made the best of it. That's about all you can, make the best of it and have a good time.

Still, I might not take the same route again, for a long time to come. Traffic is bad, pollution is bad. It used to be a good route to run about 2 years ago. Not anymore.

I might have extended my run but for the gathering dark clouds pregnant with rain. Reached home with 10 minutes to spare before the skies opened up and drenched the earth.
