Gorham to the Shell, up SW Bike Path to almost Verona and back to the Shell-

I again selected this route because I needed to run with my backpack and didn't want to get it sweaty, not that that was a problem today. This was my first long-sleeved run of the fall.

Last night I was at a dialogue group with the atheist group on campus where each side has the other read an article with their viewpoint on a topic. This time they seemed to have selected a wacky crackpot article from some group claiming quantum mechanics is a conspiracy funded by free will activists rather than legitimate science. Fortunately, they didn't seem to actually believe such absurd things but it was a real eye-opener. I thought about all of this on my run.
