Biking 1:15:00 [3]
(injured)
Biking in place after not-lab! My ankle has been feeling a bit better (walking ok, stairs ok, still a bit stiff and painful in the morning), so I was hoping that I could run for 5-10 minutes tonight. I headed out with Presto, but it hurt immediately, so I stopped. I figured I'd just take Presto for a walk instead, so we continued on. I noticed a bunch of police around my street, but there have been water main issues, so I didn't really think anything about it until they shone a flood light in my face and told me to turn around and go home. They then shone the light on a tree that had fallen across the road and was resting on the power lines on the other side of the street. Eep. So, yeah, not sure we could have escaped for much of a run regardless.
Biking felt great. My butt is really improving, which makes the entire experience more pleasant. I spent the first 30 minutes on the phone with a friend who had a rough day and just needed to vent, so I wasn't pushing very hard, and then the next 45 minutes actually getting some serious exercise.
In other news, the saga of Lori and the Curse of the Shipping Gods continues. I attempted to send a bunch of insulated shipping kits to Berkeley so they could continue shipping my samples to Cornell. Sadly, the insulated shippers arrived here instead, so today I spent my afternoon shipping everything to Berkeley.
