| Amazing, beautiful run in Vail, along the Eagle River. Cold, water, leaves, needles, high-end real estate. (one of these things is not like the other)

| More of the usual, just because my back needed some relief after spending 8 hours in the car. We almost caught a snake just east of Green River where Jack stopped to pee at the side of the road. But I was too scared to reach out and take it by the tail.

| Lately I haven't done a comprehensive job of tracking my shoe usage. It is a revolting development.
Cool to cold, dark to darker, along the usual path. I notice I see less well on and after runs. There were abundant stars, so I ensconced myself on the trampoline afterward to look at them. It got old fast, so I went inside to watch game two of the WS instead.
I've never got much out of staring up at the cosmos. A couple times I tried to watch perseids and leonids. Pretty much I fell asleep, and was cranky the next day. A couple weeks ago, I got up at 4AM to observe the lunar eclipse. I guess it would have been more interesting if werewolves or waterbenders around, but to me it just looked like a brown tinged moon. I can see that anytime wearing sunglasses. I guess I'm stuck on earth.

| I went to the track for a bit. Ash came along on rollerblades, but the spongy track didn't work for her. I got in a 3:04 800 and a 4:48 1200 before we went home.
Actually, I dropped her off, and ran 5 more.
And got thinking about the hubris/feasibility of running a 2:55-2:59:xx marathon at age 43 or 44. I know thousands of guys that age and older run that pace all the time, but how many of them for the first time?
10k 4-5 time a week isn't going to cut it, though.

| The first 4 miles involved a zombie chase 5k with my younger daughters. We missed the start, so the zombies didn't know to chase us. We ended up with 7 tickets in the raffle, and won one gift basket that included $20 cash, $25 to the hardware store, and some candy. Not bad ROI on the $15 registration fee.
A few hours later, Tami and I did some trail running on the BST.
