74F, 94%.  6 @ 8:59 AP.  Ran around the construction in the neighborhood - there are a lot of new roads that have been cleared, but not paved, and the packed dirt makes a great running surface.

Oh, I forgot to post this yesterday, but it's important.  As I was running shirtless down Potranco road, a lady slowed down to yell "WOOOOOO!" at me.  This makes 2 times now.  in my lifetime.  I looked, and there is unfortunately no tracker for this on the blog, which is weird.  I mean it's a much more important metric than sleep, shoe miles, weight, etc.

Top quality post today. That's good blogging!

Maybe you should carry one of those whataburgers while running. Might get you more cat calls.

I'm really concerned if this is the same woman who has yelled "WOOOOOO" at you twice. Your wife might not like this running affair with another woman!

Different car, but I never get a good look at the person inside. No matter, there's plenty of SlowJoe to go around.

Maybe she was excited that you can no longer carry a gun on Whataburger property in Texas.

Oh Burt - it just has to be concealed. This is Texas we're talking about. They can "take a stand" but they aren't stupid. Well, maybe a little.
