Personal:

Started running in November 2007 to get fit. Now I'm back almost to square one after back surgery. I did it once and I'll do it again.

"In truth, runners don't race other runners. They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares. And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better."  Running for His Life by Michael Hall.

T/M:  Visited Petco Park for the first time- Twins v. Padres; I got back to the hotel around 11pm and still hit the treadmill for a run; I don't know if it was discipline or just that I wanted to avoid my homework for this hellacious trial advocacy seminar; 8:30 pace

I finally got in a run outside this week; I ran along the San Diego River in Mission Valley part of the way;  I say part of the way b/c the public running/biking path ends abruptly and then a dirt path continues through the interstate underpass;  I got to see some rather interesting people along the path including one dude with a huge hunting knife on top of the picnic table where he was sitting;  he smiled as ran past him;  I think my pace picked up considerably after that...LOL; interesting place.

Home sweet home; spent Friday in a mock trial in the morning and flying home from San Diego; snuck in a run before seeing the Incredible Hulk w/ my son; ran quite fast despite the recent poundage (7) I've put on during my hectic travel schedule; 7:33 overall pace
