am--6.25 Out-and-back on the Dino Tracks road. I never know how I'm going to feel when we get going--the achilles is morning-tight, and I'm old--but once we started, I felt great. We had a nice little group, including Josie. Good climb and good finish. We also tried some guided visualization. Hope to get some feedback as we do that throughout the season. RHR--53. 

pm--Erg and weights. I did 15 minutes (3.5k) on the erg and then lifted. 

I also finished another book, Spring Snow by Yukio Mishima. It's a story of star-crossed lovers in early 20th-Century Japan. It took a little longer than expected because my reading habits are lax in the summer. Nevertheless, books like this make up about 97% of my travelling. Books are a great way to travel through time and space and get a firsthand account of a culture.

Josie's always mentioned when she comes to practice & I have yet to be. I'm not bitter though.............

I'm just glad you're alive. ;) We're at Confluence Park by the Dixie Center tomorrow. Why don't you come?

I'm glad you're concerned. I'm scheduled to work for the rest of my life though so the practicing will be very limited now):
