10 miles
This morning I ran 10 miles in the cold rain before 6am. I had to leave the house at 4:20.
I'm still trying to cheat the clock.

Manga Me
I learned of a site which allows you to create Manga avatars of yourself from Dan Pink's site. The site is called FaceYourManga.
Dan Pink wrote his last book, the Adventures Of Johnny Bunko, entirely in Manga. It was a very good book and very ejoyable.
Here is my Manga. I had help from my son who pointed out that (1) I always wear a baseball cap when I'm home, (2) my beard is not the same colour as my hair, and (3) I'm always sitting down.
