Used my inferior prefrontal cortex to determine that the best time to run was in the middle of the rainstorm. Did half an hour around East Rock, then collected Becks and did another half-hour through the ghetto before running home from Becks' place.

Event: Ratlum Holiday International Night O
 

Some arms and core stuff at the hotel's fitness room after the run.

An exploration run in Tempe. Started from my hotel just before dusk and ran north across the lake (yes, apparently Phoenix has a lake). Ended up in some deserty park next to the Phoenix Zoo, with scattered saguaro all around. Ran to something called Hunt's Tomb and then Hole in the Rock, which was a small arch pretty high up in the red rocks. I happened to be there right at sunset. It was really bright red, and the surrounding mountains were lovely. Then ran back in the dark - less fun.

Treadmill at the hotel in Phoenix again. 10x1 minute hard to make it less boring. Have been debugging code all week, with minimal success. Frustrating.

4x4 minutes at 6:50/mile and 3% incline with 2 minutes rest at 10:00/mile on a treadmill at the hotel in Phoenix in the morning. I hate treadmills, but at least this one had a tv showing Reno 911, which was amusing.

More on the weekend's CSU SuperStars later, but just had to comment that my only lasting injury from the weekend is a gash on the inside of my mouth that occurred during dinner.

On a treadmill at the hotel in Phoenix, just after getting in. The 77F outside is a nice change from yesterday's frigid morning in Amherst.
