Roomate and I did a nice hike on Memorial Day (pictures here. Lots of good wildflowers plus we saw a sweet rattlesnake. The day before, machine_art visited and we showed him the highlights of Berkeley: self-congratulatory hippies, flowers, and trains.
I’ve been trying to bike fast to work, but I get here really sweaty. It’s 1039 ft. of climbing, a lot for me and my lack of biking skillz.
Bolt crazy fast. 9.90 first 100m, 8.72 last 100m. Greatest of All-Time.
I ran Bay to Breakers this morning. As I suspected, I had absolutely no-go in my legs and ran easy but it was still fun. Sammy Kitwara won (I think I saw him warming up (he’s skinny)), running 4:30 pace on that hilly course in the oppressive heat. The Beast and my fiance felt about as good as I did, and were also treated to the spectacle of many many naked fat men jogging the course. Looks like I finished 100th overall so that’s pretty cool. Dan and I both ran slower than our marathon PR pace. The hardest part was running back to Dan’s apt. near the start, 6+ miles away and it was already over 80 degrees. But then we got a nice Whole Foods sandwich for lunch.
WOW.
Our yard is covered in these very very pretty flowers.
Just watched the John Denver episode of the Muppet Show. The best 30min of Earth television ever? Probably.
Good thing in that new movie they didn’t invite the bunnies to the smack-down
Beyonce and I went to scout a wedding location in my running park. They had free food. Delicious free food too. They have an open house every Tuesday evening. Hello free-Tuesday-dinner-every-week, nice to meet you.
