5/29-31/15 – Days 34, 35 and 36 (33 miles)


Pittsburgh is such a pretty city.  Lots of interesting architecture and green space – very walkable.  In terms of environ – a favorite; regrettably the weather did NOT cooperate.  We had three days of blasting heat – high 80’s and low 90’s.  We’ve learned that we do have limits.  Our first day of steep hills and constant heat almost did Mike in.  He stopped about three quarters of a mile from the end, but an extended period of rest and a pop-up soaking rain that brought the temperature down a few degrees gave him enough relief to rally and finish up.  Another plus was a dinner with some of Mike’s former Deloitte and Touche co-workers.  A nice opportunity to reconnect with old friends.  If the temperatures are more seasonable in 2 weeks, we finish up our Spring walk season by just reaching the Ohio border.
