I got back to our church with 4 miles done. My daughter was still in her meeting. She got elected to be the secretary of the youth group. By this time I was feeling better and I wanted to get that last mile in. So, I ran a loop around the parking lot. It was .15 miles, or 7 laps per mile. I did a couple laps and then decided that I should run diagonally with the stripes for parking. check out the photo. I got my fifth mile in, the fastest mile of the five.
My mileage will be low this week, I'm tapering for the half marathon this Sunday. Tomorrow night I'm going to see our Diamondbacks beat up on those hated Chicago Cubs. Here's my picks for the postseason:
Dbacks over the Cubs
Phillies over the Rockies
Dbacks over the Phillies
Yankees over the Indians
Angels over the Red Sox
Yankees over the Angels
Dbacks over the Yanks.
Who are you picking?

I wonder what a guy sitting in a helicopter over one of your crazy runs would think seeing you go back and forth around the parking lot! Guess it's more entertaining seeing all the lines on the pavement.
So you're looking for a repeat WS, huh. I'm hoping that they Yanks run is over -- now. Go Angels. I'm picking the Beaneaters to win it all.
I'm a Red Sox fan living in Colorado, so nothing would make me happier than a Sox/Rockies WS as I would be able to go to some of the games.
Having said that my picks are:
DBacks over Cubs
Rockies over Phillies
Yankees over Indians
Red Sox over Angels
DBacks over Rockies
Red Sox over Yankees
Red Sox over DBacks - what can I say, I'm a homer.
Go Rockies!!!!
Hey Pat, what software are you using to develop your data and print here? I like the representation that you get from it.
Good luck on your HM this Sunday!!!
I love the lines. I have to do that on a run soon!! I will try to make a smilie face or something.
The lines are definitely awesome. I tried tracing them on your parking garage run, but I lost track, so I am not even going to try.
When the Orioles have a crappy season I tend to not to keep track of MLB. So needless to say it has been some years so I have been in focused Baseball. o_O
It's funny how your legs will be dead after a couple of days of no running. That's why you don't want to take the two days before a race completely off.
Picks (and I'm a complete D-Backs homer, decked out in their gear at work today.
D-Backs over Cubs 3-0
Phills over Rockies 3-1
Indians over Yankees 3-2
Red Sox over Angels 3-1
D-Backs over Phills 4-3
Indians over Red Sox 4-2
Indians over D-Backs 4-3
Sorry, but the AL is so much stronger than the NL right now, but the D-Backs might have a puncher's chance.
Cubs all the way. You read it here first so when it happens, I want major props.
Nice pattern!! That cracked me up. Now that is some will power to run that route.
GO CUBS (sorry, Pat) !!
That is the busiest mile I have ever seen....
congrats on getting it done, even with tired legs! It probably builds mental fortitude and strength or something, too :)
The parking lot really cracked me up! Way to GO!!! I should try that myself.
Go Indians!!!!
