Training for the Columbus-Palomas 5k footrace; did about 2 miles for the first time in years last Friday. Got my new moccasin boots on Saturday, which make it much easier to run on my toes.
I went windskating again today, despite the 20-MPH gusts. It's not easy to control the damned thing in winds that high, but it's hella fun anyway.
Finished the aforementioned books, and highly recommend Aztec. No idea how historically accurate it is, but it's fascinating regardless, the last 50 years of Aztec civilization before Cortes destroyed it, told from the viewpoint of an imaginary native who lived through it. Since then, I've read Gleick's Chaos, Machiavelli's The Prince, and a few nibbles of some other books in my collection.
