Rode my beautiful Green Hornet downtown (8.7 mi), ran the 5K, rode home. In between checked out some fine looking police officer/runners, met up with my friend Paul, enjoyed a gorgeous spring morning in Chicago, and ate a Mojo bar. Nanci is right, that's the kind of bar I like. Sweetish yet salty.

The water station had beer, too. No joke! I don't drink, but I heard some guys behind me talking about how "that beer really hit the spot". I thought they were joking, until they got close enough for me to smell the beer on their breath! I let them go on past. Only in Chicago.

Great morning. Hope the weekend's off to a good start for all of you, too. L.
