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.
