CTS 837 -- Back to Hamburger U.

OAK BROOK, Ill. -- Today I did about 18 holes of disc golf in the Chicago suburbs and decided to run on the 4-mile loop around Hamburger University.

It's a good indicator of my fitness, since the last time I ran it was in September 2007.

While I was running on it I thought of how I've been running on this for 13 years -- I used to run it during my lunch breaks when I worked for a weekly newspaper out here.

I've run in it in the snow and the cold. I used to fear the hills but they're really nothing to me now.

McD's has cleaned up a lot of the goose poop on their portion of the path, which I appreciated.

Time: 4:15 p.m.
Temp: 61 degrees
Gear: SST (MGM), shorts, AP/D2.
