| mystic score-o I took the order 11-8-7-2-1-3-5-4-6-10-9-12-13-15-14, which turned out to be about 300m longer than going around the south end. I didn't realize this was an option until I was most of the way to 11, but by then I had already blown it (changing the plan at that point would have resulted in almost as much distance lost)
my back didn't hurt, but I felt pretty tired since I haven't been doing any road training |

Sunday May 18 |
| Note | |
| |
| feeling a bit better by now, but I'm stuck in DC for the weekend. oh well.
In totally unrelated news, my office moved to Lexington a few weeks ago, and I'm moving to Davis square in a month. this means that my commute could be almost entirely an 8mile stretch along the minuteman bike path + another mile in lexington to get to the office. I also found out last week that there's a shower in the office. sounds like I need to get a bike. |
Wednesday May 14 |
| Note | |
