Got into the city late in the day, went to dinner with some friends and then ran afterward.  I would have gone longer, but it was getting dark and I was a little leery.

In Chicago still.  Ran from the Hilton to the Adler Planetarium, around it, and then along the lake front up to where I could go under Lake Shore Drive, and then back to the hotel.  Later I went out with my cousin Amy--we had a good time and she stayed with me for the night.

Along the Lake Front up to Navy Pier and then out to Ohio Street Beach, where I saw some crazy people doing tri training, swimming laps along the abutment.  Then back to the hotel to wait for Chuck.  We went to a Brazilian Steakhouse.  Best dining experience.  Ever.  And I don't even like meat that much.

Still stuffed to the gills with meat.  I woke up at 6 and took 45 minutes to convince myself just to run a few miles before the conference started up again.  I just ran in a giant circle:  from the hotel, through the Museum Campus, north along the lake and then ran down Monroe (I think) back to the hotel.

Just went for an easy run in the middle of a day where I was watching all my nephews and my two.  My mom released me when 2 of them were taking a nap.  I had an hour and I misjudged my distance, so I went longer than that, but it was okay because when I got back, they were still sleeping.  It was pretty humid, but my parents live in Riverside, "a village in a forest."  That is not just a cutesy nickname, either, so most of my run was excessively shaded.  I ran along the river route for part of the run and then turned around and ran it again.  

It was a good.
