Legs are shot from Friday so stayed in the valley and poked around Stewart Park and the golf course. Then a brief visit with mom and headed back home.

Jogging over to Ithaca High School (we’re staying a few blocks away), warmup, and the jog back after.

Ithaca Turkey Trot. Predicted time run and all I knew about the course was that it was “around” 5.5 miles of mixed surface and included the trail I used to walk home from school (which is a PM#4-level effort that bolts straight up the fall line into Cayuga Heights). Put down 40, figuring it should run like a 10K. Didn’t go all out, but it was an honest effort.

Hanging around the activities room afterwards with nobody to talk to brought back all sorts of unwanted memories from 39 years ago; (believe it or not, I was even more asocial when I moved to Ithaca at 15 and knew none of my classmates). Missing by 92 seconds put me way out of the awards, so I didn’t stay for long.

Lost a network switch in the data center and everything went down. Prod failed over to Canada, but us developers were left with throwing pencils at the ceiling or enjoying what might be the best afternoon of the fall. Ran home via Faust/tracks/powerline.

Ran in using my trail shoes in hopes that I'd get on some singletrack after work. No such luck, but did have time to do the Central Park Loop from work.

O-O. For those who don't want to look up another chess notation, that's Short Castle. All the trails on the NE ridge of Castlewood.

(rest day) shoes: Old Excite 4

Easy jog round the hood.

Might be pushing it to call this a rest day as well. Right after finishing, drove to Champaign with Yaya because she wanted to see the combined half-time show with the Indiana and Illinois bands. The gamed sucked about as much as you would expect from two teams that haven't won a game in their conference this year (well, now Indiana has). The bands, however, were absolutely fantastic. The post-game concert was also a lot of fun. Yaya is now quite sure she wants to go to Indiana (though she has four years to change her mind on that).

Gym (Weights) 20:00 [5]

2 sets heavy, upper only. Back to full weights. Might even be able to move a couple up next week.

Can’t really call it a test day seeing as I stayed all night a work. Got a lot done on my thesis, which has been languishing almost as much as my running. Official Plan closed for the offices today so hopefully things will let up at work.

Super stiff leaving the house. Sufficiently so that I was 20 seconds late for the bus and had to run all the way in. Nice morning to make that mistake; beautiful sunrise.

In to work via bus. Legs feel a lot better than they did a few weeks ago. Still on the fence about Pere Marquette, but leaning towards running it.

Bird on a Wire. Some big earth moving project is underway on the powerline. The purpose was not clear.

Was going to run O-O-O but the Skippo was on and I didn’t want to interfere with the race. Ran the flood plain trails out to Glencoe instead. On the way back, I checked out the little section of flood plain forest between Glencoe and Sherman Beach. It is every bit as cool as I thought it would be. Not sure if it’s wide enough to actually set interesting legs. Also have no idea who owns it; access might be a problem. Sure is cool, though.
