This morning, I went to check out the new skateboarding rink. Good news – there were no kids there to laugh at me 🙂 On my way back, I went to the Starbucks that the old Sunday morning Bengali running group usually hangs out after the run.

I have not run with this group in probably over a couple of years. Even the coffee visits have become fairly rare. It was good to catch up with the old and new runners…

Tried another set of hills in Milton today. Took it easy and slow for the 5K today. Most of the run was on concrete sidewalk. Couple of niggles in the right foot (very old injury) but not very bothersome.

5K run in Milton.
The best part was enjoying the early morning while huffing and puffing up and down the hills. Clocked at 10:30 min/mile.
The worst part was remembering that I used to do these hills at 8:30 min/mile a few years back 🙂 🙂

Went back to the old Starbucks that I used to run from and then enjoy a coffee. 4-5 days a week – for over 5 years. I can feel the body aging already. The stamina is on the decline. Worse, the drive is waning…

Even stopped at the Target for a bio break like old times…

This is right behind our office in Itasca, IL. A quick 5K run before work started…
