A pretty routine 5.5 miles this morning, in a foggy spring morning. One notable occurance: while waiting for a stoplight to turn at a busy downtown intersection, a pair of middle-school aged boys pulled up beside me on their bikes. The younger one was wearing his helmet, the older one had his hanging from his handlebars. But when I gave him a gentle scolding, he put it on, and kept it on for at least as long as he was still in my sight . It's always good to see kids biking to school, but sending out a couple that age at dawn on a very busy street with no lights on the bikes, I'm not so sure that's a good idea...

And the pollen count's so high I'm thinking of heading to the treadmill tomorrow... *Cough sneeze cough*
