A common evening short run for me is down to Spanish, around the ball field through the arch in the wall near Our Lady of Mercy Vocational and Technical School, and back home. While the Germans thought of Pohnpei as a colony, hence Kolonia, the Spanish named their settlement Santiago de la Ascension - saint of the ascension. Thus I refer to this route as a "Santiago arch run." The route is almost exactly four kilometers, just over two miles. Like many runners, I time my runs and record the duration of each run in a log book.
