Wholefoods Run> on the way there (4:30pm), the canal was 1/2 frozen, and half of the Canadian Geese were swimming, and the other half were walking on the ice, which would crack and make a wet-fart sound. One went on thin ice and fell through, but these guys float, so no matter. On the way back, it was dark, so I used the hand-crank led flashlight on the tow-path, which would have scared me had not the sounds of the items shifting in my backpack, my breath, and my steps kept my mind off of it.

My first BM Pyramid, complete w/ non-stop jogs in btwn. 19 laps total (9 of which was the inter-jogs), plus warm-up/cool-down to/from stadium. Maybe it's that it's no longer hot, meaning more energy could go into running rather than body climate control, but suprisingly, it wasn't so bad... or maybe I wasn't pushing myself hard enough. This is the first time I didn't do it with anybody. It took 39ish minutes. It was 100 off/on x 4, 200 off/on x 3, 200 off / 400 on x 2, 200 off / 800 on x 1, and back down... something like that.

400: 2 x Moon Gingerbread Cookies... except I made the mistake of thinking it would be okay to not add ginger to the dough, since we didn't have any ginger powder (though we had ginger root), and of adding only about 60% of the recommended suga, making the cookies taste very bread-like
600: 2 x Moon Gingerbread Cookies... barely sweet enough to pass for a dessert
