Personal:

Pride necessarily sprouts and grows; a pride that can only come from relentless kneading of unwilling flesh, painful months of grinding and burning away all that is heavy, all that is strength-sapping and useless to the body as a projectile. --John L. Parker, Jr., runner/author

Sounds like a day off?

Question. What's the purpose of the one mile treadmill walk?

From Wesley Hunt on Mon, Nov 24, 2014 at 15:23:33 from 70.215.128.182

Nope. I drafted a motion to waive an administrative hearing, thereby reducing costs, thereby generating shareholder value no doubt...

When I was trading for the 100 and doing high mileage, including my marathon TM workouts, I periodically used these walks (4mph and at least 2.0 incline) to recover and simulate the race. Today, I was just checking email and finishing up a panel discussion on CNN regarding the Michael Brown shooting.

Hope you are well, Rob. Enjoy the holidays.

I seriously figured it was something like that.

So, it sounds like you're working in the private sector? Your profile is a little vague. I'm sensing something less than enthusiasm in the first paragraph there. Or was that light-hearted sarcasm.

Just as long as you don't bill me for this exchange.

We have some unorthodox Thanksgiving plans that I'll blog about. Should be fun.

All of the above...it was true, less than enthusiastic, and ripe with light-hearted sarcasm.

I work as regulatory counsel for Entergy, a large public utility in this part of the country. It's a good Company, based in New Orleans, promotes diversity, relatively socially responsible. I'm very fortunate...started 2 days after I graduated from law school nearly 7 years ago.

Look forward to the T-Giving posts.
