Notes

Well so much for trying to "get some more running in this week". Although, I guess i have gotten in more running than that pitifully small bit i did last week.

Also the push-up thing hasn't been going so well either. Let's see, last week i was redoing week 3 and only did one day. Nothing this week yet, but since i'm thinking about it, I'll crank out a few now.

(weekIntermediate: 25, 12, 20, 30) I just wanted to get in the shower.

Went to the Lakefront because it rained like crazy earlier, and cooled down to the upper 70's. The clouds kept it comfortable and there weren't many people out. Very nice conditions.

I ran north from Burnham along lakeshore drive and past Grant Park, where they're setting up all the lollapalooza stages and whatnot. Some people out there today. Several tourists on rented bikes, but no one got in the way. One bike gave my running a compliment, which is unusual. Then a lady in a car gave me a smile that said "I see you, and i'm not going to break your stride". That was nice (and unusual too).

Felt great to be out there, lets see if we can break 15 miles this week. Come on slacker!
