Weekly walking/running roundup
What I’m doing: Probably just running around the B&A trail's BWI loop over and over to get my required mileage. One happy point: If I appear a bit suspicious but still behave in a civil manner, the TSA mall cops are now officially legally unable to arrest me just for being there and looking weird, according to a court decision reported last week. (On second thought, I'm not sure I really want to memorize legal decisions just to feel comfortable running without a passport -- maybe I'll jog in Towson instead.)
What else I recommend: Brian Hand, a professor of exercise physiology at Towson University, will be hosting a fairly inexpensive "Basics for Beginning Runners" workshop at Falls Road Running Store on Saturday morning at 11. If you're interested in information, he's available here.
Other options:
Weekdays - Glen Burnie daily walking program, Rockville all-comers group run, Federal Hill Monday runs, Weekday runs at Goucher, MCRRC weekday runs, Open track workouts, ESRC weekday runs, Pacemakers Wednesday runs
Saturday - Family nature walk, Calvert County Sweetheart 1 mile run, Chesapeake Bay Running Club Trail Series 3K, Howard Striders Saturday bagel runs, NCRTS Saturday group runs, PGRC Thursday runs
Sunday - Bear Run 4 Mile, Family nature walk, RASAC Nobles Mill 5 Miler, Dundalk Superbowl 5K, BRRC Billy Goat Series trail race, Columbia Penguin Pace 5K, Group runs at McDaniel, BAH3 Sunday run (innocuously boisterous linked content, as usual)

If the same agent sees you running by a second time at the same spot on the BWI Trail an hour and a half or so after the first he might not think you look suspicious but I bet he'd think you were nuts.

Hee hee -- good point. It's a fairly large loop, but quite pretty in the summer -- there are horses along part of the route, if I remember correctly.
