Ok, I’m throwing in a peek at my world here since Teresa has asked me to share. I run twice a week for four miles outdoors; well I try to. I do it because I want to stay in shape, but also to break conformity with the image of the typical system admin. In any case, as you may know the east coast is experiencing some uncharactersticly warm weather for this time of year. It was 65 degrees where I am today. I ran around dusk, and it was starting to cool down. My route is on a low altitude road (almost sea level) with a lot of trees and fields. As I was running, I realized that the temperature was changing. I would hit pockets of humidity and heat, and then one minute later I would hit cold air. The contrast was startling. In any case, it made the run interesting.

*editor’s note: i invited merlin to share his geek life with us, because we all need to be open to different kinds of lifestyles. thanks for sharing about your run, merlin!
