Biked to the office from my house, left bike in office and did a nice 30 min loop by the very muddy Rock Creek Park - we've had so much rain lately, which is good cause it makes all that pollen go away! Will try to run a bit more this evening before biking back. Left heel still hurts a bit but not too bad, and tendon doesn't hurt at all.

How about that Boston marathon, ha? Such an exciting finish, yet the slowest time for women ever recorded? See you next year, Boston!

PM: Found out a couple of my colleagues got laid off today, including one of my best friends, the person who recommended me for my current job, and someone I've learned a lot from. Very sad and worrysome... I guess I won't be getting a pay raise any time soon, and glad to have a job - there are advantages to making little money, it makes you less likely of a target if they need to cut costs... Anyway, I was very upset so I decided to run home. Great idea, it was rainy and beautiful out, the sun set behind the clouds right at the moment when I was going up Capitol Hill, so I was able to enjoy the bright oranges and reds... Not sure if it was because my mind was worrying so much about all these, but I had almost no pain, only a little bit on my left heel.
