Today was my first day running in the new neighborhood. I went from my house out to 32nd, east on Pueblo, south on Val Vista, west on Southern (I have actually ran the Southern Ave. part before), north on Lindsay, east on Broadway, south on 32nd, and back home. I only saw two other runners. One was an old lady that looked like she was booking it. The other was a young guy and he also had a library card. I figured I'd see more people out running because I see them all the time, but I guess it's mostly in the afternoon. What else am I supposed to do if I can't watch other runners? At least I got to run by Giant Hamburger. It's a pretty good restaurant. I've eaten there several times.
I went to the bathroom twice before my run. Speaking of adult diapers (because I know how immature you all are), I read some articles on AZCentral.com that really disturbed me last week. A guy I went to college with, who graduated the semester after me, was just found guilty of murder. A couple of years after graduation he 'got a cozy little job with the Mexican mob packaging candy cane.' (Ten points to whoever can name that song without googling it.) Anyway, it's a long story, but basically they lost their shipment of 'goods' and suspected it was the police informant. It was. So they took him, forced him to put on an adult diaper, so that when they tortured him for information, he wouldn't make a mess. That just turned my stomach to hear. He was a nice kid, too.
Time - 35:53 (avg. pace 8:14)
Splits - 8:09, 8:15, 8:16, 8:16, 2:58 for 0.36 (8:15 pace)
Okay, I'm posting the links to the story. Here they are : Link1, Link2, Link3
