A rare, rare evening run. Since it's getting dark increasingly earlier and I'm working increasingly later (though not going in later), the after-work relax run has escaped me as of late. So tonight was very pleasant. Even though the sun had gone down it was an abnormally warm evening, more like a late summer day than the early winter days we've been having (I forget what fall is, since it skipped the Pacific NW this year). Decent weather on the horizon though, I'm not promising to get off my butt seriously just yet, but hopefully a few more miles than I've been doing.

Fitness-wise I've clearly lost a step, but my legs feel pretty rested. A little too rested.

There's only one cure for being over-rested... sleep!

Sounds like your work schedule is mirroring mine these days.

Can't wait to see you in Moab! We might need to slaughter a cow to make enough brurgers for everybody.
