In favor of National Laziness Day - (its a thing) - I took a day off. Had a lot going on with family and had to travel for work late in the day.

AM -- 7 miles early morning in Davenport Iowa. Ran along the Mississippi River - under the super moon. Here on business. Ran past a river boat called the "Queen of the Mississippi" which caused me to think of the song "Mississippi Queen" (dreadful) and then I past a freight train with the tracks that paralleled the river trail - which came to a stop. It was literally over a mile long.

I decided that I like runs along a river. I have run along some notable ones over the years. Hudson, Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri, Thames, Tiber, Seine come to mind.

PM - lunchtime. 5 miles on the treadmill. Finally broke down and joined the gym next to my office. It is way more expensive than I would want to pay - but it is so convenient and there is just no reasonable alternative close by.
