Z4. Average/max heart rate = 160/177

I ran the magic distance today. Awesome. Yes, the magic distance is 6.66mi. That is a harbinger of great shit to come. Just because.

I've been listening to a lot of the Smiths lately, if only to rediscover parts of my lost childhood. Except I didn't think I spent much time as a child, looking back at it.

The Wire and New Order songs neatly bookend my freshman and senior years in college. I would wake up in the mornings to A Bell Is A Copy...Until It Is Struck as a freshman, and the New Order song was a standby of my senior year as I'd bought the EP before going off to what I called the Summer of the Hitler Youth (i.e., 10 weeks on temporary duty in three places) before coming back to school. Republic was released that summer, but I never got around to getting it until after I was back to school.

I felt like complete shite for the first lap of three. I felt better on two and was starting to tire by three, but I will pig the fuck out tomorrow, so I need to run. Meh.
