April 16, 2014 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Meeting in the afternoon got cancelled, so I got to run a little earlier. I was exhausted this afternoon, wanted to go for a nap rather than a run. Just got up and went though. It was nice out, but with the snow this morning, I couldnt be too careful with clothes, so I bundled up a lot. Didnt really need it all. It was windy but sunny. Some spots on the trails were soaked and my feet got really really wet. Ugh. Otherwise, went at a pretty easy slow pace just getting it in. Nice to get the fresh air. I did go for a walk today too, maybe thats why I was tired. The Westboro Baptist Church was on campus today protesting UMass' acceptance of Derrick Gordon coming out. I wanted to go down there to see it and keep them off campus. There was a huge rally going on infront of the student union, and then people started to wander over towards the sports field where the WBC was actually set up. I didnt know they were that far down there, so by the time I walked down, I had to come back because I had class. I did see them standing there looking like fucking idiots. The cops were there because the made a traffic jam. There were also hundreds of students lining up with signs protesting them. We like rioting here at the Zoo, so the cops were there to keep the peace because we could have driven them back to Topeka.

Essentials: Stretch

Good stretch in my office when I got back. Feeling low energy still, but my legs feel good. Wont get much running in this weekend, but Ill get to watch some, which is always cool. Want to find out about this cume so I can move on and get back into work mode.
