I ran in my Saucony Cohesions, a pair of white and blue sneakers that are old enough that they have shredded uppers. A slow run, but a fun run.

Evening bike ride. I felt physically well enough to get out on Monday, but life got in the way; I prioritized poorly. I set out today planning to check out the western limits of Lawrence Ave. I will eventually get to a more disciplined training regimen, but for now, I am content to spend time on my bike in a completely unstructured way.
I overshot my target of Lawrence and Islington, but I had a delightful time on Lawrence - which is just large enough to be fast but small enough to not be deluged in traffic. I had planned to return via Wilson Ave, but I got lost in HereBeDragons, picked up Dixon, and accidentally returned to Lawrence. At this point, it made more sense to return via Lawrence.
It's tricky to find good places to bike in a city as vast as Toronto, and there are far too many stop lights and stop signs. There is an argument to be made for extremely late night rides, as few people are on the road then.
I really wanted to hit 30 kph average once I picked up Lawrence, from 17:00 to 50:00; I managed a paltry 26.7. Disappointing; there is not enough fitness.
