I got a jump on my resolution for 2008 today and went for a lunchtime run between morning and afternoon clinics. It is stunningly sunny and lovely out today: 40-degrees and bright. I ran from DFM straight down to the waterfront near Peir 66, headed north along the water toward the Olympic Sculpture Park, which I bypassed to avoid the temptation of touching the art. I ran through Myrtle Edwards park along the pedestrian path to a little spot with parallel bars and a sit up platform. A little of this and that on the bars, then back south toward the sculptures again, facing into the bright December sun, which at best seems to rise halfway above the horizon and so far to the south that I was running right into it. Nice though. I wonder how many lux you get on a day like today?

Getting back to clinic took a little more uphill energy, and I started to fade a bit. But reminded myself that lunch awaited, and managed to press on.

Again, I did not touch any sculptures.

Thirty minutes remain now between me and my afternoon clinic.

Today it was easy to keep my resolution. We'll see what happens when the rain comes back.
