A good night’s sleep + good hydration got me through this hot day’s #run, but the “feels like” temperature is rough and I was soaked at the end. #Running #RunnersOfMastodon #Brooklyn

Another 💩 day, another 30 mins on the treadmill. 4 hours of sleep also not conducive. But at least I got my #run in. #Running #RunnersOfMastodon #Brooklyn

Hot today—78 degrees when I started, probably over 80 when I finished—and one of those mornings where every mile you #run seems longer than it’s supposed to be. Still, it’s done, and felt good in the end. #Running #RunnersOfMastodon #RunForLife #Brooklyn

Good Sunday morning #jog with Riley the #beagle and finally got her stubborn self to go a different route today. 3.6 miles ain’t bad for her these days. #BeaglesOfMastodon #BeaglesAreBest #Brooklyn #ProspectPark

It’s been a while since I posted about taking Riley the #beagle to the park, but squirrel tracking remains her occupation (and these 3-4 mile run/walks are my weekend warmups to longer #runs). Anyway, as you can see, recent weeks have had us in similar spots with lots of backing and forth-ing on a scent. #Brooklyn #ProspectPark #BeaglesAreBest

Great #run today! 7 miles at a good pace; trying hard to keep my early speed slower and save energy for the second half of the run; seems to be working, but harder than it seems like it should be. #Running #RunnersOfMastodon #Brooklyn #ProspectPark Only drag is I keep forgetting that Saturdays are a terrible day to run the park perimeter—the farmer’s market at Grand Army Plaza is always packed and impossible to run through.

Great evening for an interval #run through Prospect Park! 3/2 splits: 3 mins running / 2 mins walking & still covered some good ground. #Running #RunForLife #RunnersOfMastodon #Brooklyn #TGIF

Best—longest—run in a while. Between the heat and the smoke/air quality, it’s been hard to get it right, but today was finally cooler, the air was better, and so… #running #Brooklyn #runforlife

Being a loud mouthed Jew from NYC*
when I scroll thru the local posts gaining traction, or the federated feed, I am reminded of an old joke:
Someone has to pay retai**l
*If you are offended, my Great Grand Father was a revered rebbe; my GF was president of the largest temple in Brooklyn and once had dinner with Golda Meir, etc etc
** IN the original version, someone was replaced by a derogatory word used by Jews to refer to non Jews
Yes to all the rain in #Brooklyn right now. The borough needs a good power wash.

I don’t go to bars to be surrounded by kids. Quite the opposite, #Brooklyn parents. You made a choice. If you want to go to bars, become self-aware and find a babysitter. /rant
I try not to let small things bother me too much when I’m biking , but when a #cop intentionally drives over a flex post to illegally park in a pedestrian island it pisses me off. This behavior makes #walking #biking and #driving more dangerous because it blocks sight lines. #SunsetPark #Brooklyn #NYPD

Fun ride last night with NYC Bike + Brew. They really do the most organized and fun social rides in #NYC Look for their page on #instagram if you’re interested in a group ride with #beer at the end.
Finally broke down and started using #Strava as well.
