I was listening to the Memory Palace Podcast this morning and it was a wonderful story about Robert Smalls, the first, and for a time only, black sailor in the Union Navy. He successfully stole a confederate paddle boat, sailed into in the blockade outside Fort Sumter and ended up being well rewarded for his trouble.

I woke up this morning at around 4 having to pee and then slept fitfully until I woke up. Strnagely, I dremt I was in a small apartment in a big city and Amanda had come to tell me that I probably had Covid-19. The dream was real enough to make me wonder if I should still be going for a run this morning if in fact I was sick. I hope Amanada's doing alright in Portland.

@BartekGrabski I was reflecting on Palm Springs this morning and remembered what a great time I had connecting with you there! I hope we get to talk in person again soon, but perhaps a coffee call over Zoom would do for now 😄

Given that I skipped my long run on Sunday and took Monday off, I thought today would be easier. I started counting miles at the turn even though I know better. It is tremendously humid out this morning. There was enough fog that my glasses kept getting covered by mist and I eventually had to stop trying to clear them off.

- Everyone agreed that it was a great idea
