Reading and Sk8ing
05/28/2010 07:11
I’ve been spending the days reading for my comprehensive exams, so evidence of my existence seems to be gathering in my reading blog rather than here. Along the way, I discovered why I really can’t stand Thomas Jefferson.
But I’ve also been trying to get outside a little. Found an 11-mile paved trail from Amherst to Northampton. It’s not really smooth, and it has some bad bumpy sections (I fell once last week). But that makes the skating more challenging, and in the end will improve my strength and balance better than a perfect trail would. So far, I’m doing six mile loops. In a month or so, I should be ready for the whole round-trip!
