Marovitz (Waveland) GC. With incoming rain storms forecast, I biked over there at dawn and teed off at 6:30am. A couple other duffers joined me on the second tee, and we played a very enjoyable nine holes. Took 4 strokes off my 2009 PR for this 9-hole course...quite an improvement. The greens were in fantastic condition, and I one-putted three of them.

After my round of golf, went out for an extended run along the Lakefront, perhaps my last long run before Saturday's 10-Miler. Felt weak and tired throughout the run, perhaps because of the race yesterday? But I was thinking about Matzah Ball, and all the running he was doing.

Season Starters 5k, Seven Bridges, Woodridge. 1:04 slower than last year in this race. Missed first mile mark; thought I was moving faster than I was. Not sure the second mile mark was accurate either. But I enjoyed doing race with my nephew Aaron from Boston, who cracked 21 minutes and was just loafing.

Contained within this workout was a 1000m piece in 4:05, with a 2:03 pace. Not my best. But after the big Mexican dinner on a deck down the block behind a little northside cantina, it was the best I could do. Nephew Aaron showed up for breakfast and tried his hand at rowing: 3:23.2 for the 1000m with a 1:46.6 pace!!

Took wicker chair to the upholsterer's for recaning on the el. Then ran back home on a bright, warm spring morning. Chicago has never looked so good as it does today! Clean streets, fresh spring foliage and flowers, friendly people greeting you on every block, interesting new bars, restaurants and shady luncheon gardens all over town. Wonderful to live in the city!

Dawn run. Over to the Lakefront and along the shoreline, watching the pre-dawn brilliant golden and red "mackerel" sky above. Then, just as I was turning back, the first slice of the sun emerged on the watery horizon. With the birds wheeling overhead and the fragrance of the park trees in bloom...what a show!

Tuckaway GC, Crete. My golf buddy Larry finally returned from the Far East where he and his wife spent the winter. Lived mostly in Singapore, with six weeks spent driving across Australia to Perth.
A decent round of golf. Equaled my PR for the course. But still a lot of fun. And a stop at
Three Floyd's brewpub for lunch on the way home.
