The training has certainly improved.
A few late nights this week at work, but by and large, a productive week of training. On Wednesday evening, I was stuck in town until about 7:30, so I didn’t get to run until about 8:10. I call these my superman runs.

I have firmly concluded, that taking the time to take the train home, getting in the car, and driving to the gym or another 15 minutes to my home, change, and then begin to train, takes WAY too much time. Time which otherwise could be spent more wisely (i.e. training)
So I become Clark Kent, minus the phone booth.

I simply change out of my suit in the car, get into my gear, and just start from wherever I am, whichever parking lot, whatever city works bring me in. I save about 30 minutes of commuting, and feel like I have control over my day and time.

Tomorrow is a run down on the Charles River with my college XC coach, and some other friends. Looking forward to that. Also looking forward to the fact I won’t have to play superman.

Besides, real heroes wear shiny, metal capes. 
