Are you looking for Mars tonight? Tonight the planet will be closer to Earth than it will be again until 2018.
If you look close enough maybe you'll see the two rovers: Spirit and Opportunity. Like Columbus, Cook and Lewis & Clark they're exploring unknown territory up close. Unknown to us anyway.
Back on earth, I went off on a nice seven mile run through Sunset Park. I felt great, experiencing no after effects from Thursday's 20 miler. The normal solitude was shattered by toy powerboat enthusiasts who were racing their mini gas-powered boats around the lake. At least the fish were too scared to take the fishermen's bait.
Looks like I'll have to look for somewhere quieter to run. I wonder if there are any good running trails on Mars?

there probably are great trails on mars ... but there wouldn't be any OXYGEN! maybe water, though, right?
