Blow-off-steam neighborhood run

January 6, 2019 (Night)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 40s, mist

Comments:
I was SOO fucking pissed that I had to go run it off. I had to do this in 2001, the last goddamn time the Bears got upset by the Eagles in the playoffs.

Ran a couple miles around the neighbhorhood: x3 of the AM walk loops. Ankles were not too bad.

I tried to put a positive spin on this (if not superstition): in the last ~20 years, when the Bears have suffered upset devastating playoff losses, something monumental has happened in my life that year:

2001 season (lost to Eagles): started HS coaching, got SUPER-fast
2005 season (lost to Panthers): started PT school
2010 season (lost to Green Bay): ran/finished my first WSER

(2006 doesn't count: I wouldn't call their loss to Indy in the SBXLI as upset loss).

Spent the rest of the night working.
