Expedition

There aren't a lot of reasons to head out at the end of a gloomy workday to look at some tucked-away residential streets in the already tucked-away suburb of Lake Oswego. But then, that's kind of what geohashing is for, as far as I'm concerned.

It seemed like this hashpoint would be well positioned to start a run along the Willamette River, and it was, but it was also up an impressive hill, so the first kilometer or so was steeply downhill. I ran for about 2.5 miles, then ran back about 1.5 miles and then felt too tired to keep going. I felt kind of guilty about skipping the uphill part, though.
