next, my major task was finishing a 600 page book on…

“antartica” by puccim – for a continent, it’s pretty unexplored – definitely so until the last 100 years – very detailed account of the battle for the continent – even though no one really knew why it was important for the longest – good example as well of how things done in the name of science aren’t typically always done in the name of science:)

“running on air” by coates – book about breathing – and running – i tried it today, and of course, that was why i ran superfast:) the interesting part i think was that coates has been a runner and a coach for 30-plus years – so he has the wisdom to speak of things that made the book good – and would make the books ya’ll read from experts in whatever you enjoy good as well

“just call me jock” by semple and kelley (younger) – library book from 1981 – came from florida – was actually AUTOGRAPHED – which was amazing b/c semple passed away years and years ago – great book about how the boston marathon director used to run things back in the day when several hundred runners ran the thing – next year, there will be 25,000 plus – and i’ll be there too:)

hope your journaling is great – moreover, that your reading is good
