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. |

| The break really did me good. Objective this week is hit 60 mi, so I took it easy again but mixed in one 7-minute mile (actually started out at about 7:40 and then decided to put on the gas about 800m in). 8:10 average overall. Nimbus. |

| Legs were more or less OK but my mind was a-wanderin. May have had something to do with the fact that it was almost midnight by the time I shook off the third base coach's sign and made the turn for home. Didn't feel like going very fast, and indeed I did not. With a concerted push on the last four blocks, kept it under 9:00/mi. Nimbus. |

Have I mentioned that the nights this week have been totally freaking beautiful? Coldapple, clear, moon shining bright, all the stars that's fit to see through light pollution. Delicious. Some high clouds this morning, I think a front may be moving in. Bummer.
Hardish but slowish miles. Legs still feel more or less like jellyfish puree, waiting for the "adding miles feeling" to go away, which may be when I stop adding miles. Ran an extra .75 or so up the lake and back, on the theory that I may not feel like running 15 later in the week. Meanwhile, will be glad when the new shoes arrive. Nimbus. 1:26 total. |

Out with DG for barbecue; combined with the fact that public restrooms along the lake are apparently locked after 10:00 in wintertime, this made for slapstick that nearly turned tragicomic. Neither the time nor the place for resolution of knotty doctrinal issues, of course, but perhaps I'll be forgiven if I thank God for the Greenlake Bar & Grill.
Slow, slow and slower. But I finished with a dash/lumber. Nimbus. |

| There were moments in this run where my legs found themselves again. Brief, shining moments. Mostly it was dreck, though. |

This was a great run. Not particularly fast, and not particularly far. But it took me (barely) over 60 for the week, and over 200 for the month, and I was striding much less jello-like. Last mile in 7:52. Cool! Mizuno.
Very satisfied rest day tomorrow. |
