treadmill 20:00 [2] 2.32 mi (8:37 / mi)
weight:141lbs shoes: Asics trail

Knee feeling irritated enough to be annoying but not quite enough to stop.

So here is the predicted course of the G over the near future, based on the current 141 (and an unposted recent high of 144):

Feb 1 - 139
March 1 - 137
April 1 - 135

Just a warning....

road running 18:51 [2] 2.08 mi (9:04 / mi)
rhr:54 weight:142lbs shoes: Asics trail

Knee still off, but it seemed to recover from two days ago, so I figured I ought to try again. Quite chilly, but for the time being at least I have plenty of natural insulation.

Good workout. Knee was sore after yesterday, so no run today, but it was feeling better as the day went on. Well, actually I did run a little, to the car after the UMass BB game to beat the crowd, knee felt ok and I was on the road before the jams started. Try again tomorrow.

Also decided it's time to try a little harder to keep the G under control.

road running 19:03 [2] 2.08 mi (9:10 / mi)
shoes: Asics trail

Another day, another mile. Actually 2 miles today! Whoopee. Knee still aches some, but it is slowly calming down. Don't notice it most of the time. Hope I am not overstressing it with these long runs....

My computer at work is starting to behave itself too. Had the computer guy in yesterday, mostly to deal with remaining issues with my tax software. Of course he had to also deal with other pressing issues, like how to make the print larger on AttackPoint. Well, smart as he was, he couldn't. He could change the screen resolution, which he did, which made it a little more legible, but the place where you can make the text smaller or larger had no impact at all, other than making the bullets larger. I guess when you use crappy products (PC and Explorer) you have to expect crappy results.

road running 13:53 [2] 1.5 mi (9:15 / mi)

A little bit icy. And a little bit farther. Still pretty feeble.

road running 8:33 [2] 0.92 mi (9:17 / mi)

Outside, in shorts! It wasn't all that warm, I just forgot to take my long pants.

Felt old, slow, and still a little sore.

Note

So after spending a few hours yesterday dealing with new software and a new computer (one of the PC things) and continually running into problems, and mostly solving them, I show up today and discover a whole extra set of problems. Time to start over. Called up the guy we got the computer from, the one who supposedly transferred all the files over, get him to come back and do it all over again, this time hopefully right. And then re-install the 07 software.

There is reason to believe this might actually work (bearing in mind that a definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome). He was told not to copy over the files from years prior to 2003, but I think what he did was look in the tax folder and just copy files starting with 03 through 06. Which was ok in itself, except he forgot about a lot of other files that don't start with any number at all (licenses, documents, settings, all the stuff I was dealing with yesterday, plus today's surprise, all the depreciation data, plus who knows what else).

So tomorrow morning I get to start all over again, with more success I hope.

I suppose in the meantime I am learning a little more about how those second-rate PCs work. Though this is interfering with my plans to go over to Worcester and find John Fredrickson and collect the bounty.
