10 easy with James. Clear skies and kind of chilly, just over 8 min pace

PM:

40 minutes on stationary bike

Ball of my right foot is pretty tender. Likely metatarsalgia or morton's neuroma, based off the symptoms. Maybe just bruised. Plan is to keep doing the tempos, workouts and long runs but all the easier runs will be done on the bike until it improves. Oddly, it hurts more to walk on it then run. I was limping around like an old man today.

I read The Stranger by Albert Camus yesterday. Absolutely loved it. Wondering how I missed it in all my college philosophy classes.

I insta'd a quote from that book a while ago!! "In the midst of winter, I found there was within me an invincible summer." Albert Camus

When you've finished reading Camus, you should move on to Dostoyevsky - he might be banned in the US:) - and then you'll be ready to take the leap into the world of Beckett. 'Waiting for Godot' is the second greatest play ever written... Don't even ask!

Bam,

Thanks for the recommendation. I haven't read Dostoyevsky and will definitely put him at the top of the list. :)
