I started this at about 06:30.  I woke up to find a message from a school in St. Petersburg, asking me to answer some pre-interview questions, to send an image of my passport page, and to send my Skype handle.  I was hoping I would get such a message.  I wrote my rough draft answer to the first question,


"1) You are taking the first ever class with a group of eight adult beginners. What are your objectives and methods? Please present a brief outline lesson plan."

and went out.  The tough part of this blog will be to refrain from writing too much.  I will want to write everything that is happening.

I first ran down by the lake and did 13 pullups on the climbing structure.  Then I ran to the east edge of town and through the casino parking lot.  I wonder what goes on out there at 6:30 in the morning.  I know they have a hotel, but I wonder if there are people gambling 24 hours a day out there.  I guess I need to check it out someday. 

From the casino, I ran to the park near Saxton's and then across the road to the Catholic Church, and to Lawler, my street.  I have been running a final sprint down Lawler from 14th street and onto my driveway.  The first time I sprinted this final leg, 16 April, I did it in 1:09.31.  Today was my record.
