Chaire Herodikos Selymbriaios!

Out for a little 1-hour-and-52-minute tour across the locks to Magnolia, and the Minnow was nearly lost. A light but steady drizzle; started bonking right after I headed back up Market Street, with about 3 miles till home. Left foot hurting a bit too. That last 20 minutes definitely on the grim and determined side. But I'm here to tell the tale.

Caught David for about 3 miles from 25th and Trail to Gasworks, where we shot the shoot and climbed the hill. Still feeling very good for that part. Fortunately for Seattle, it's quite beautiful on a warmish rainy Sunday morning. I am content when awakened birds test the reality of misty fields by their sweet questionings.

530 with DG. Begged off yesterday as foot was quite stiff, but after a warmup mile this morning it started feeling pretty good and now is AOK. Having been through it once before maybe I have a better idea of how to manage.

530 w/ DG. Slept abominably: up at 3 and couldn't do nothin so I ended up working for an hour or two before the run. We went slow and talked politics, so that was fine. Fortunately I had nothing all morning so I called in, took a pill and got up at 10. I'll be glad when this is all over.

1 x lake in the PM. Felt very strong, had to hold myself back. Foot felt fine, good stretching afterwards.

530 with DG. Yest and today was like, you know, night and day. Very stiff, ran like a granny. Then figured if I was going to be sore anyway might as well tack on three more miles. Don't know if that was the right thing to do or not, but there you have it.
