Running (woods run, mostly) 45:00 [3] 3.25 mi (13:51 / mi)
Planned on a bike ride today, but it kept getting later and the phone kept ringing. Decided to go investigate to see if I could find clues as to who had rammed my gate. Some wayward attack badger drove a pickup into it pretty darned hard, especially considering there;s no straightaway. Bent the gate probably beyond reasonable repair and loosened the gateposts, which were in four feet of rock and crushed stone. Anyway, followed the tire tracks out to the devil's elbow, but I'm no smarter now than before. Then headed down Robin Dr Barkhamsted to the log landing from the land trust cut in '99. Went through a good patch of killer raspberries before finding a trail, then around the clear cut - now 20' high, and down below Tom's house through some barberry that made Macedonia Brook look benign. Back up Doyle Rd and home. Route.

Got a cortisone injection in my wrist today. It's been nagging me since at least last fall, maybe last summer. Started up when I was wrasslin' rocks to build the bridge. X-ray revealed a bone spur. We'll see.

Gym 40:00 [3]
Rhonda's little circuit workout with her 6am fan club

Road run with the 6am gang. Foot real sore after 'goat.
Note
A fine and unusual bird sighting at a temporary pond down the road. A red phalarope had gathered a large phalanx of scopes and binocular toting enthusiasts. Also there were 6 greater yellowlegs and a least sandpiper. The red phalarope is an ocean going bird who spends his summers in the tundra. Why is he here? Birds have wings. Must keep my cats away. One of them snagged a downy woodpecker today, to its great and permanent distress.
