Moist, mashed, maple litter makes for some slippery spots, especially from Bedford Street to I-95. The adjoining forest in that stretch is a double threat, both providing the litter of flowers and seeds and keeping the sun from drying the shaded trail. I found the slipperiness most hazardous on the inbound (eastbound) side. That's not because there's more of it on one side or the other, but because inbound is uphill in that section and pushing harder means more exposure to slips.
Today: 13 miles. This year: 86.2 miles. It's been wet a lot, you know?

I used to run in a park in Malden and one turn made me slow down to a walk without fail every time. It was perpetually wet and moldy. Be careful!
