Just watching all their feet.

Saw our first Guardians game for the season last night. Forty degrees. We had fun, won the game (almost fucked it, though) but, man. I feel still and tired this morning. If I hadn't gotten a call from a sick actor I wouldn't have gotten up as early as I did.

So, we run!

Distance: 3 miles
Duration: 24:55
Route: rec center
Mood: good
Stretches: yes
Water: yes
Weight: 160 lbs.

Some compulsive chewing at the game last night, provided the illusion of heat. Anyway, the occasional indulgence is fine. It's the constant indulgence that will get you.

You hit the deck, you get found out.

Oh, my GOD. This is where we fall apart. I attended two ball games this weekend in lieu of running (not exactly, but yeah) both of them involving rain the second of which did not even happen. But I did get to eat an awful lot of junk food, drink a lot of beer and absolutely no water.

Life is fun, yay. Take care of yourself, man. Remember to drink water and to choose the salad once in a while.

Distance: .1 miles 
Duration: 28:44
Pace: 9:16

Last night I had three cramps, one in each foot while reading in bed, and the third in my right calf in the middle of the night, waking me from my sleep. She says it is lack of potassium, and it may well be, but also lack of exercise. The winds change, I must keep vigilant.  

Route: Forest Hill Loop
Temperature: 62°
Climate: clear & cool
Mood: good

What a beautiful night. What a lovely run! Why don't you do this every day??

Honestly, because it's been raining for a week. Cut yourself a break. But let's go!

Who the fuck are you.

New hat.
Maybe I should take a break, and rest these weary knees. Or maybe I should just run slower this morning.

Route: Horizon Loop (clockwise)
Temperature: 63°
Climate: sunny & cool
Mood: good

Nice, easy, good. Saw a winning game last night, then the boy and I watched Sherlock Jr. Never seen a Buster Keaton film before, just little clips. He was an inspiring director. Even the boy was impressed.

He's a man now. I will still refer to him as the boy.
