| Woke up late (7:30) & a bit sore in the lower back & tired. Am starting to think about cutting back on caffeine, sugar, alcohol. Not that I'm actually going to do it now, just thinking about it. There is still some leftover apple pie, and it goes so well with coffee... |

| From the Institute for Contemporary Art through downtown Boston, across the Longfellow bridge, and home. Gentle rain. |
 | Bicycling 55:00 [2] | |
| |
| Now this was insane. 5 pm (rush hour); outbound; dark; 40s & raining; snowbanks along the edge of the road forcing parked cars toward the traveling lanes and eliminating the bike lane. Until I got to near the Fellsway I was on edge and took sidewalks where I could.
To Melrose from Cambridge. Dinner with Dave & Harvey. |
Wednesday Dec 26 |
 | Bicycling 2:45:00 [3] | |
| |
| Biked to Maynard and about half the way back (took the train the other part). It was very cold, 20F or below, at 7 when I started. I did not have adequate gloves, leggings or socks. Stopped for shelter part way along in a garage. Saw one biker on the way out; he waved. On the way back in I saw three, on bright yellow recumbent bikes. They waved too. And smiled. |

Monday Dec 24 |
 | Running 40:00 [1] | |
| |
| Bridge loop. Felt like the first run after a long time of being bed-ridden or something. Lower back quite stiff; stopped to stretch a few times. Must be the nadir of my physical condition, barring injury. I'm glad that my right achilles tendon seemed fine, even though it was quite bothersome by the time of the third IceBug run two days ago. |
 | Walking 1:00:00 [1] | |
| |
| With kids to church then with dad home. |
