| Met up with Richard at 5:45 for a run on a beautiful, but rather warm morning (temperature 60 degrees under clear skies). Richard is steadily improving and each Monday we're able to run just a little faster and a little further without stopping to walk. My right calf was still a little tight from Saturday's run, but it wasn't anything more than a recurring nuisance. This morning I extended the run up North Cottonwood Drive all the way to the top and even partway down. Pushed it a bit on that section, but will wait until later in the week to push it hard. This week I'd like to get up to the mid to low 40's on mileage. | | Add Comment |

| Warm morning (57) under clear skies. Slight breeze. I woke up a minute before my alarm went off, but I was hoping that I still had some time to sleep. I felt a bit more sluggish and achy this morning than usual, but started to feel normal about three miles into the run. Pushed it up the hill and back down, but not all out. Saw three deer by the side of the road having breakfast and about a dozen walkers and joggers close to and along the creek trail. It was definitely a taste of summer this morning. | | Comments(4) |

| Windy, rainy day. Took it kind of easy to give sore muscles and joints a chance to recover. Pushed it at the end and felt great. | | Add Comment |

| A little on the cool side this morning. Temperature 39 with 84 percent RH. Low, threatening clouds in the southwest. With just a slight breeze blowing at the beginning, it felt downright cold. I was glad I decided to wear gloves. A little bit achy and tired the first mile, but felt better as the run progressed. Running through Highland Glen Park I caught the scent of something so fresh and sweet that it almost took my breath away. It would have been worth getting up early just for that moment. There was a fine mist coming off the pond and two deer further down the trail just watching me closely to see if I posed any kind of a threat. For some reason this morning (maybe it had something to do with the weather) I thought about how I'd like to re-read some of Dostoevsky's novels. I read nearly everything he wrote in my late teens and early twenties and later re-read most of them in the German translation (maybe now I need to try them in Russian). His books certainly rank among the greatest works of fiction in any age. | | Add Comment |

| Had a busy day planned and could only manage a quick loop around the pond. | | Add Comment |
