The weekend's highlights were 3 very good runs, the lowlights no yoga. But the best picture award went to Mystery of the Nile an Imax movie I saw at the Luxor Friday. It was an amazing movie about a group of scientists and other nerds who, for the first time ever by anyone, navigated the Nile River, the world's longest river, from it's source in the mountains near Ethiopia to where it flows into the Mediterranean Sea. And on a 7-foot screen it's an amazing display. Beautiful, amazing scenery but watch out for vertigo as the flying film crew navigates the tight turns and waterfalls of the mighty river.
The best I could do in real life the last 3 days were three quality runs at various locations. Wednesday it was about 6 miles to, from and around Sunset Park. Thursday was a 12-mile exploration of the 30-mile Mountain's Edge Trail. I've been sampling this trail for a while but still have more than half of it to cover. And Friday was a great 5-mile run from Paseo Verde Park in the SE part of town. The weather was clear and crisp each day with a clear view of the sun-drenched mountains in the late afternoon.
Alas, I found no time for yoga the past few days and fear my yoga teachers will think I've passed on to the next lifetime. But I'm still here and now.

I had a ski day like your run day.Despite three weeks of unseasonably warm weather I took my skis with me Thursday as I had a closing in Little Valley which is near Ellicotville.Slopes looked covered so I ended up skiing all morning on beautifully groomed uncrowded trails.Areas had made lots of snow early on and its now paying off.Very euphoric,with the blue sky and forty degrees.Not so nice today with freezing rain.Tomarrow between thirty five and forty,clear and light wind.Sounds like the bike rises again.
