Four Pain-Free Miles

North St Paul Community Center indoor track. I forgot my watch, which makes it difficult to count laps, so I ran 36 minutes at a pace that surely moved me at least four miles, probably about 4.2. Most important: No pain at all in the Achilles. On track for a five-mile run Thursday. That’s only a 12-mile week, but easy does it, next week will be better.



Monday's breakfast: Organic oatmeal, organic fat-free milk, banana, organic giant blueberries, organic walnuts, Don's nut/fruit/berry mix, Hershey's extra dark chocolate. As good as it looks!


Saturday's salad: Organic salad greens, cucumber, avocado, organic braeburn apple, roasted organic cashews, organic medjool dates, blue cheese, raspberry vinegar.


Saturday's dinner: Wild-caught Alaskan salmon, seasoned, organic pickle relish, organic lemon, organic green peas. Not shown: One gluten-free beer. There are actually at least three good brands available here now.
