Running 50:17 [3] 6.88 mi (7:19 / mi) +41m 7:11 / mi
Went to the track to do one of my faves the 5 by km (I like to think of this as the lazy man's 5k - "Don't like 5k's? Run 5 K's!") but didn't reckon on the track being iced over with the temp just above freezing. Figured I could do time-based intervals around the soccer field, which worked okay for one rep, then someone turned all the lights off. So then I left the track and wandered around Kirkland, trolling the owls.
historical comp
Many were appalled by the Know-Nothings. Abraham Lincoln expressed his own disgust with the political party in a private letter to Joshua Speed written August 24, 1855. Lincoln never publicly attacked the Know Nothings, whose votes he needed:
"I am not a Know-Nothing — that is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor of degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that 'all men are created equal.' We now practically read it 'all men are created equal, except negroes.' When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read 'all men are created equal, except negroes and foreigners and Catholics.' When it comes to that I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty."
