Personal: I know a secret technique for opening mangos taught me by a Wolof sorcerer. I was briefly a political appointee at the U.N. I am intimately familiar with a disciple of David Hume. |

| Getting back in the swing after months-long layoff. Want to drop 10-15 lbs before adding any substantial miles, guessing I'm up to 165 or so. Intended a leisurely run around Fresh Pond, but a chick with an ipod tried to pass me. She didn't get far! Maybe a 7:50ish average though I won't keep time until a bit lighter on my feet. |

A very stately trot around Fresh Pond, then 15 min cool-down on the elliptical. Hottish and sweaty, but rather a nice evening. Left achilles and posterior tendon-that-connects-to-the-achilles somewhat sore. Fitness in quads is not good, they've already got that glycogen-depleted feel but it's fine if I keep below 9:00s. Baseline weight: 168 Bugs eaten: 1

Saw the Dr., more baseline biometric data... they are ugly:
BP: 130/90
RP: 74
Weight: 167
Shouldn't surprise me after ten months of inactivity, but not fun to see.
Aiming for 2.5 lbs/wk -- 153 by July 4. Then I can start training.
Gal's to the river up and back. Not fun, not fast. Beautiful evening, couples on the benches; my body however did not inhabit the garden of terrestrial delights. Like running with a 20-pound weight belt. Used the heart rate monitor & stayed in the 150s for everything but the end (163). Took the whole 3 min cooldown to get back to 115. | |

| 10 pm and 76 degrees. Feeling better, but abdomen is awfully tight. An odd sensation. |

| Fail fail fail. The workout on the elliptical felt good at the time, but too much perhaps on the same set of running muscles. Just couldn't loosen up, after a while began to get the sense that I was in danger of pulling something and cut short. Frustrating, as CV is starting to catch up and I otherwise felt good. |
