Running is a great way to see a city. Early morning, take off in a random direction, maybe with some advance recon for interesting areas to explore. It allows for exploring that in many cases results in some interesting discoveries, a unique restaurant, a park or trial system that would otherwise be missed.
Today That Guy and I discovered West Union Lake, an area I'd not been to on previous visits to Seattle. Float plane, yachts, kayaks, lots of bikes and runners.
Afterward a train over to the Univ of Washington are to visit the Oiselle store to get birthday gifts for the girls. Then a walking tour of the UW athletic facilities.
Along the way, while crossing the Montlake Bridge the Cycling Angel road past. I later saw him releaving himself in some off path bushes. When ya have to go ya have to go, even if you're an angel.
Next a stop in Captiol Hill neighborhood to grab lunch at The Honey Hole, excellent sandwiches. Saw Jimmy on my walk there.
Finally at game at Safeco, complete with an almost caught home run ball.
So close!
