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.

Snow-->slush-->mud. It looks great coming down, but by the time I get to it, a bit of a slog.

Slightly new route, or rather, combined the old and the new. I'm definitely getting my legs back. One fastish mile in 7:35--limiting factor was more some minor soreness in a few areas than the muscle fatigue I was getting last week. Will try keeping up the miles at a moderate pace for six more days then start varying it a bit.

This was I think the first time in months that I've had to cut a run short. Digestive problems. I'm not sick, so it must have been something I ate. Frustrated.

OK, that was a bit better. Didn't get home until 10:30 and had only a couple of bananas for dinner, so a serious effort wasn't in the cards, but at least I wasn't heading for the public restroom or Starbucks every two miles! Finished my loop at just about the stroke of midnight, to discover two police cars blocking off a section of street right in front of my apartment, on exactly the stretch where I do my cooldown. A burglary or something I guess. Ten minutes later helicopter did a flyby.

Another late work day, didn't start until 10:36. Still taking it pretty easy, legs and stride feel better, but basically trying to get a sense of the pace they want from me and stick to it. The idea was to run till midnight. Got 9.75 miles out of it.
