A Change of Plans

My orignal plan for my 12 mile training was to take the pedestrian path to the airport and get a rental car. I did a web search to see where I needed to go in order to pick the path up. I typed the trail name in and up popped an article about how runners, especially single women had been avoiding certain parts of the trail (the part I needed to use) because of muggings. Now this was last year, but I wasn't going to take a chance. Instead I did my twelve miles on the treadmill at the hotel. I did break it into 3 segments, 6 miles, 3 miles and 3 miles with 5 minute breaks in between. But I did it. And the rental car - there's a Budget 3 blocks from the hotel!
