Running like a watercolor in the rain.

Tiger is also a Master of Disguise

Driving to Hudson and back first thing in the morning has messed with my weekend groove. I got back into bed and slept for another hour and a half. To be fair, I had a small orange cat under the covers with me, and he is a hypnotist. Also, I had a bit of a struggle getting out of bed yesterday, anyway.

Why? Too much exercise? Really? It's not that much exercise. But it is consistent. No idea. Just a Saturday morning. I should be grateful not to have any head pain. Like, really. Thanks the heavens for no head pain on a Saturday morning.

Distance: 3.1 miles
Duration: 30:38
Pace: 9:53

Also, it is a regressive morning, raining and cool. Not my favorite day for running, but not the worst, either. It's not my favorite day to do anything, really, but not the worst, either. Great day for sleeping in, though.

Literally discovered Space this morning, on Instagram, a French synthesizer band that appeared onstage dressed as astronauts, complete with face-obscuring helmets. Huh. Good idea. 

Also, "Magic Fly" must have been the inspiration for the theme to "Buckaroo Banzai." Space is the place!
