Wed: 20 minutes around Central park with Will

Thu: 20 minutes North Field after work.

I might not run the next few days. I'll be in Maryland, where the ground is frequently frozen/snowy this time of year, and I don't want to run on roads.

Nice run around a park somewhere in San Marino with Will. Four laps took about 20 minutes, so it's a good-sized park. Shod, not completely trusting a strange environment with the bare soles of my feet in the dark.

Another nice North Field run, slow and barefoot. Felt pretty good. The north field looks nice - it's very green, but I think the grass is kind of short and the ground is fairly hard underneath. It's still a pretty decent place to run when there are no bees on it.

I snuck on to the North Field today. It seemed unlikely that anyone was going to object. 20 minutes felt good. I'm still a little worried about the bottom of my left foot, but I think that as long as I keep it on grass and stay very conservative, a little running should be okay.

I also ran with Will three or four times this week, and with Megumi once (20 striders in the mud). So overall, I'm feeling pretty good, although out of shape.
