I wasn’t planning on it, but after running easy for about half an hour on the track yesterday at Weston Field I decided to get the 3000m test over with. While it disappointed me that my time was 11:45, I reminded myself that I am not, nor will I ever be, a runner and moved on.

Today I think I’ll take a long bike ride and move on from yesterday’s pain. I heard a rumor the other day that Mt. Greylock was open again so yesterday I took a trip a short ways up Notch Rd. and discovered that the rumor was true! After 3+ years of construction here is the final result:

A random thought: during bike season someone pointed out how they thought my calves were enormous and I had a sudden epiphany that I’m a perfect victim for compartment syndrome: a nordic skier with big calves and bad foot circulation. Lets hope that I am wrong.
