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.

So after being inundated yesterday I forgot to soak/dry my shoes and they smelled as if I'd dipped them in ammonia.  But I'm not confident enough in the Merrells/whole concept of "barefoot shoes" to run 8 miles in them on the pavement. Just want to get to a 75 mi/week base without hurting myself.

Thus, ~4 miles in the AM on the TM.* It is so boring. Couldn't stomach 8 miles of that so I figured I'd split it up and finish the day's miles this evening. 

*Actually ran about 4.5 but figure the machine counts for less.
