LSD

1:44:39 today in the woods with Dan, Mario, and Christy. Christy stayed with us for 1:10 and then headed home while Dan, Mario, and myself added on a Assabet River Wildlife Refuge loop. It was a great run at a very comfortable pace. It is one of my favorite loops as well. Next week I am going to try for a 1:55 long run. Unfortunately, the pool could not be used for swimming after the run because it was really cold out. It was nice to ice the legs afterwards in it though.

The cold/sore throat/congestion thing that has been a thorn in my paw last week is almost completely gone and I am going to bed right after this entry to try to put it out of its misery. This week, I am actually going to train. Let's hope this little virus didn't do any real damge and only delayed things.

Harvard man James Blake got ousted from the French open today by young frenchman Gael Monfils. A rare sigtht on national TV is two black players squaring off against each other in a major tennis tournament. A sport of priviledge, professional tennis could use some diversity. Good match but unfortunately Blake is just not a red clay type of player. He should do some damage in the US open.

That's all I got.
