On Sunday, I earned my long-sleeved Gary Larsen T-shirt by running the annual Run to the Far Side road race in Golden Gate Park. Brisk, even chilly, for San Francisco, but no rain and the course runs three blocks from home, so the family came out to yell at/for me as I went by. This year, though, I ducked the 10K in favor of the 5K. My body thanks me for it, even if it’s an admission of my lack of training, otherwise known as reality. 19:33 for the 5K, and home for waffles before 10am, so I can’t complain too much. The scary part was having a dream recently where I was excited about buying an ergometer and training on it regularly. Clearly, I’ve been away from rowing a bit too long if erging is invading my dreams.
