          Another broken record—this time by just a bit less than a second, 89 one-hundredths. I am struck again by the enormity of fractions of a second when you are running at full speed.

          An evening run through the park. I could hardly take a full stride without running into an old lady, a kid on training wheels, or gaggle of giggling girls.
