A Thursday Run Through History...

From our apartment (in the shadows of the Nations Capitol) I began running down G Street to the Anacostia River Trail near the Titanic Memorial. I turned right on the trail and ran past the Fish Market on towards the Jefferson Memorial. Then with the Washington Monument looking down on me I ran around the Tidal Basin to the Potomac River past the steps to the rear of the Lincoln Memorial. From there running along the Potomac I ran past the beautiful Kennedy Center for the Arts and then past the infamous Watergate Hotel. Then past the Washington Waterfront shops. Across the river I could see the Teddy Roosevelt Island. I continued along the waterfront to Georgetown. I finally arrived at the trail head to the famous C&O Canal Historic National Park. From there I returned home the same way.
