Partly due to thinking about Boston, partly due to the gorgeous weather, and partly because I’m woefully out of cardio shape, I decided to hop back on the lunchtime running train today.
I didn’t run well (1.8 miles in 20 minutes), but it felt good to get a baseline, and I look forward to improving this spring.
Happy National Running Day! (From Fresh Air: Tips For Happier Running!)

We have officially reached the time of year in DC where jogging, cycling, or driving along the Mall becomes one big game of “dodge the tourists.”
Took a late lunch run through the Cherry Blossoms this afternoon. Nice when the smell of the blooms is lovely but the pollen count isn’t ridiculous!
It was far too nice of a day not to go running a lunch, pollen be damned.
Although its getting to the point where sunblock will be necessary soon!
Getting ready to run the St. Patrick’s 8k, with my teammate Liz (and our three months away team-member-to-be).
I love my regular runs on the National Mall, but jogging the Brooklyn Bridge is a whole different kind of inspiring.
Lunchtime brought a nice run on the Mall, albeit while dodging raindrops and groups of waterlogged students.
With the brief winter weather subsiding yet again, it was another great day for a lunchtime run in DC!
My thoughts on education, communication, social media, social justice, effective policy and governance... scattered into large amounts of photography, cooking, music and sports.
