4 K today

4 K run today. Ran on King Street West and it is quiet due to the streetcar "pilot". I feel sorry for the businesses... recall how busy King Street used to be. I wonder if buses replaced streetcars... I would be happy as I won't have to wait at a green light as passengers enter/exit streetcar.

YTD = 89.9 K

This week = 17.4 K

This winter is unlike any other I recall. Last Friday, rained a lot then temperature dropped so the rain froze. Fortunately, sidewalks not slippery and even dry. Can't wait until the spring!
