Yet Another Lost Post

Wrote a whole thing yesterday about almost falling in a pile of dog/horse shit, and poof! Gone again.

Brrr!

I know I composed a post since Nov 18, but it seems to have slipped into cyberspace.

Nov 19:  ATB before karate
Nov 20:  ATB before karate
Nov 21:  ATB early so I could watch the Macy's balloons after work
Nov 22:  ATB early so I could get home for Thanksgiving
Nov 23:  ATB
Nov 24:  ATB

And now it's cold!  My lungs still hurt from the run tonight.  Probably should have gone out earlier.

I need a vacation.  Tomorrow's the last day of 'doing nothing' where I should be getting lots accomplished but I've really enjoyed doing nothing.  Though I have tried to clean my apartment.

Birthday!

Finally starting to feel a little less sick. Went to karate last night. Always puts a smile on my face. Sensei Ross and Ralph both missed me, which was sweet, and I got promoted to purple belt. Which was a good birthday present and sorta fitting.

Nov 12: ATB
Nov 13: ATB
Nov 14: ATB
Nov 15: ATB by karate
Nov 16: 1 mile in Prospect Park

Decisions today. Big day. Birthday!

Hacking Up a Lung

Nov 11: ATB before rounds

Hacking, coughing, sputtering. With lungs like this, I hate running. I'll love it again when I can breathe.

Hate Being Sick

Uuuuuugh. Sinuses. Lungs. Mucus. No voice.

Nov 9: ATB after work
Nov 10: ATB before rounds

I've been fighting this a week and it's starting to win. It needs to be gone.

AAGL: Vegas

So great to see people! The expected: Liz, Cara, Kirthi, Nancy and the unexpected: Gorelick and Droesch. So great to see Droesch! It was an awesome few days.

Nov 6: 2 miles around the strip
Nov 7: 1 mile on the strip
Nov 8: ATB

4 posters for SGO. A breakout, round table and poster for APGO. Video at AAGL. Not too shabby!

Early Morning

Ran this morning before the flight to AAGL. Excited about seeing people in Vegas!

Hard to See

All the trees down in the Park. Pales in comparison to the devastation people are suffering, I know. But these trees are so old and there are so many that have fallen - even if replaced, it'll take another hundred years to grow again.

Nov 4: 1 mile Prospect Park

So proud of everyone who ran in Central Park today, who ran to Staten Island to help, or just ran. We're runners. We'd run anyhow.

Run for Prospect Park

The Frankenstorm wasn't overhyped. There's still places without power, downtown Manhattan flossed, and the Jersey Shore is destroyed.

Oct 29: 1 mile in BSB. Hallway down and back, up the stairs, repeat from 3rd to 7th floor.
Oct 30: Up the hill
Oct 31: ATB
Nov 1: ATB
Nov 2: ATB
Nov 3: Prospect Park 3.3764 mile

The NYC Marathon has been canceled. So in the last 48 hours, more than 1000 people signed up to run in Prospect Park. The first race in a City Park since Hurricane Sandy. We raised more than $25K to help rebuild the Park. It's amazing and sad to see all the huge old trees down. But we will rebuild.

Oh, and my splits:
8:22, 8:32, 8:36, 3:06 = 28:37
