Things have been going well in my life.\u00a0 I’ve been dedicating myself to completing long-standing, major projects.\u00a0 I’ve learned that the preponderance of major projects in my life bog down my life and interfere with each project’s completion.\u00a0 Furthemore, they all basically render my acting career impotent.\u00a0 So this summer I’m taking time to knock out some long-standing and time-consuming projects so that I can liberate my life and feel happier again.<\/p>\n
How does that connect with today’s race?\u00a0 Since the last race, I haven’t run at all.\u00a0 This is because I’ve been focused on completing these projects.\u00a0 The process has been good so far, and it’s not surprising that today’s 4-miler in Central Park was so slow for me.\u00a0 I managed probably a little better than I expected, though I could tell my cardiovascular system wasn’t conditioned.\u00a0 No matter, though: I decided I’d bike to the race today (giving myself a bit more exercise in this beautiful weather this morning) and I biked back,\u00a0too, as a soft entrance to bringing fitness back into my life.\u00a0 It is about this time that I planned on phasing running and training into my life.<\/p>\n
In today’s weather–which was about 64 degrees, sunny, with comfortable humidity–I did 4 miles in\u00a030:04 (7:31) for the inaugural NYRR Celebrate Israel Run<\/a>.\u00a0 I managed to pull off a really fast sprinting finish that pulled ahead of a ton of people in the last leg.\u00a0 That was the fun part of this race.\u00a0 It looks as if photos will be coming soon.\u00a0 Here are my unofficial Garmin results.<\/p>\n Unofficial Garmin Results<\/p>\n
