Luckily, I can cruise out my front door, hit Cherokee Boulevard, and soon be on the Sequoyah Greenway, to Third Creek Greenway, to the Volunteer Landing Greenway. This takes me from my Bearden are all the way past downtown.
This is starting the Sequoyah Greenway- all the sudden you go from dense neighborhood, crowded Kingston Pike, then the middle of the woods. Heaven!
Third Creek Greenway follows the creek until it joins the Tennessee River.
Third Creek flows next to my high school- we tested it in Ecology class (wearing above the waist waders- hot), and it is super filthy. However, it looks pretty (hmmm, grommety yet attractive looking- reminds me a lot of people I went to high school with).
This is past Tyson Park, near UT campus.
And then you hit the Tennessee River.
Cruise down the river, across from Neyland Stadium, and through Volunteer Landing park.
Past downtown.Then to a kind of shady former brownfield, where there was nothing to take pictures of. Plus, I wanted to scurry back to a more populated area.
You can cruise through the Agriculture Campus' gardens.
Then head home back along dirty old Third Creek.
It was a great sixteen miles! Easy too- perfect for a sleepy (hungover) workout!
Speaking of working out, in the sidebar is now a weekly workout plan, as well as a daily food diary. I need to hold myself accountable- these 8 pounds are going to fall off by themselves (damn it to all hell, I wish they would!). I know it's a bit tedious, so ignore it if so inclined.
Ya'll have any bright ideas for me? I normally don't focus on the scale numbers, but my clothes are tight (eek!).
