Ghetto Cat Loop/First Tee/Orange Street Loop

I walked the Ghetto Cat Loop this morning in 29:35.

It got up to 75 this afternoon, which the radio weather fucks said might add to the severity of this evening's storm, but it made for a nice day at First Tee. I scored well for the first time this year, with a 46 from the middle tees. I had 3 pars, 3 bogies, 2 doubles, and 1 triple, and used 15 putts. My scorecard read: 1-5; 2-7; 3-5; 4-5; 5-4; 6-4, 7-4; 8-8; 9-4. I am hungrier than two motherfuckers.

Surely this isn't the first time I have run in hail, but I don't remember doing it before. The two-mile mark of the Orange Street Loop is on Orange, about a third of a mile south of my house. Drenched, and fearful of bruises and brain damage, I made a U-turn there and ran in after running the two miles in 21:09, with splits of 11:07 and 10:02. I started this run at about 9:10 p.m. Central.
