RunLog: Two more personal bests! I finally broke eleven minutes for the mile, and I finished the 5K in 37:00 flat. My back didn’t trouble me at all and my tendon hasn’t hurt since I got the new shoes. Of course, now I have new problems. After I got off the treadmill I went to…

Apparently “voluntary” means they’re not going to fine you if you water your lawn, but they’re urging your neighbors to tell you on if you do. Hmmm. Fine, I can refrain from watering…
