running in stockholm

Running in Stockholm is always an adventure. This time, it was an 8-ish mile run around Brunnsviken lake that turned into 12.5. See, the rule of "keep water to your right" did not account for the canal connecting the lake to the Lilla Värten fjord, and it was a couple miles further north before I realized that something had gone horribly wrong. Yes, I had my phone with me, with free data roaming (thank you, T-Mobile), but I was relying on dead reckoning to guide me, and the GPS running watch to record my mistakes.

BTW, this is part of the Royal National City Park, a really nice collection of greenspaces, some quite close to the city center.
