4.55mi, 38:21, 28 APR 10, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas

iThink: The Cure, "Disintegration"

WX at 0600: 43.0 (6.1) DP 39.9 (4.4) BP 29.89 (1012) S 7 RH 88

Odometer 1: 389.8mi

Z3 high.
Average/max heart rate = 168/185

First run in almost two weeks. Third run in the last month. When I think about this past semester, I think that this is the one where I lost my mileage base and learned what academic exhaustion feels like. What irritates me is that it's in my first year of graduate work, but unlike many of my classmates, I'm holding down two classes and a full-time job which amplifies the workload quite a bit.

The weather was ideal and I was frankly surprised that I ran what I did, even this morning when I've done so little. Either that, or the other reason for not completely coming apart is because I've made a concerted effort to cycle everywhere I go on Fort Leavenworth since it's a (comparatively) cyclist friendly post and vehicle parking has traditionally sucked so bad that it's easier for me to take my chances riding (even in the rain, for which I got fenders on my bike) than driving and doing the Great American Orbit-for-A-Great-Parking Spot. Instead of burning dead fossils, I'm burning lard. I can live with that.

There will be time for future penance later.
