I did the run today. Which was good since I had skipped the long distance run on Sunday. A lack of sleep and a slight drizzle had made the prospect of sleeping in more appealing than running 29km, which I don’t think I could do with my injury anyway.
After today’s run I got distracted by television. (It glows so beautifully.) At around 9:00 I remembered that I had to go to the Edmonton Journal office to drop off my weekly Sudoku entry. I usually go by scooter because it is more fun that way. As a lark I checked the weather office’s radar imagery before leaving. It was quite a shock to see a huge body of blue heading right into Edmonton. That was my cue to rush.
Last year I had a bad experience with weather while on my scooter. The inclement weather in Canada of the year hit me while I was scootering home through the river valley. That was not pleasant.
I could try and exaggerate and make the trip more exciting, but there was nothing to report. I rushed around to get there, probably unsafely, but no disaster. On the way there I felt a very slight drizzle. It didn’t increase, and was barely noticeable. The entire trip took twenty minutes.
