Training Log Archive: Spike

I wasn't feeling especially motivated, but the weather was relatively pleasant. I got out to West Campus and shuffled around a bit. I listened to an orienteering podcast from New Zealand. That might have helped a bit on a low-motivation day.

I shuffled up Ulrik's Hill once.

I've been listening to Radio Oringen as background at work this week. Today they mentioned that they could use more people who would "Önska en låt." I could do that. I didn't have any specific song in mind, but dropped them an email requesting something from Louise Hoffsten in the 1980s. They played a song and I thought, "that doesn't sound like the 1980s." It wasn't. They announced that it was from 1993. But it was fun to hear.

Do people still call in and request songs on the radio? With the internet it doesn't seem necessary. Back in the day we'd listen to KJHK in the Lawrence High darkroom and call in requests.

Morning run with some of it at a harder effort. Very muggy (temp and dew point in the low 70s).

I didn't see the skunk today.

The annual KU IA/KLPA/JoCo performance auditor training day. Busy day.

Morning jog. Cloudy and some rain.

I saw the pharmacy school skunk again.

I woke up just after 6 a.m. and checked the temp. At the Lawrence airport the temp at 6 a.m. was 85. Yuck.

I got out the door just before 7 and it was raining! That cooled things off a big and felt good. The rain stopped after about 5 minutes, but started again near the end of my jog.

I moved slowly.

Easy pace and looking at the new areas on the Water Tower Park map. I saw a few places where I need to make some changes. There's also a need for some more field checking.
