am--6.25 Green Springs in a pretty chill manner. We had a real skeleton crew this morning. It's been a long, awesome season. Most are taking a well-deserved break. RHR--50. 

I finished 2 more books--Great Expectations by Charles Dickens and To Pray & to Love: Conversations on Prayer with the Early Church by Roberta C. Bondi. Maybe, I shouldn't count Dickens since I read it earlier this year, but I don't subscribe to the I-only-read-a-book-once school of thought. The satire came through a bit more this time around. 

The Bondi book is quite fascinating. It is really a treatise on prayer and all that should accompany it. She speaks of prayer being more than the few minutes one might spend with their eyes deliberately closed, calling on God. It includes reflection and a real intent to harmonize our lives with the honest thoughts of our prayers. It's a real process. I will probably be reading this one again soon. Prayer is an area in which I could really improve.

pm—4.5 As we started on our run, some yahoos yelled, “35 minutes on the track!” So, we did 35 minutes of track loops. The plus is the pace gets solid without much hindrance.

pm—7 Nice run through the hood and under the super moon. RHR—54.

I just finished Foundation by Isaac Asimov. It was an intriguing read. Not sure if i’m a sci-go nut or have just found the high-level stuff right off the bat.
