15.25 miles in 1:59 around Sugar House. Started at 3:45 am. Not ideal given that sleep is important, but the only option today.

Felt good.

That's an early morning. You posted this before I woke up.

I am pretty hard core Jake. Thanks for noticing.

Thanks for the comment Rob, cryptic language in my post is a memory jogger for me and also I do worry somewhat how public all this is, and how someone could really browse one's life. Anyway, I'd love to talk US History w/ you sometime. What big mistake are we as a society making that we've made before? Debt, housing overspending, relying on gov't for rescue, etc.?

Dedication.

Yep. I agree. Dedication to anything.
