Did no running over the weekend - still trying to heal up from last Wednesday's double runs. Developed extreme tenderness at the top of the bone just under the inside of right knee. Being careful about this because I think this is the same thing that stopped my running the last time I was trying to get serious 8 years ago. Swam a mile on Saturday.
Chris and I did our usual course through campus and to the river trail at Walnut Street. Ran into Doug going the opposite way through campus heading to lunch from his tennis camp.
Soon after we got on the rec path, Chris noticed a little painted turtle on the hot asphalt - about 4 inches long. He grabbed it and dropped it back into the river - about 25 yards or so.

Maybe the turtle was trying to get someplace. Maybe he needed to see relatives and you guys didn't save him but actually thwarted the his efforts to reach his destination. KW
Gee, I hope not. Chris says the turtle hissed and did not seem happy when he was picked up. We did notice, however, that he was not carrying a subway token or car keys.
