Legs were stiff from driving to and from Omaha last night sandwiched around standing for 4 hours at the 311 concert. The show was great. Exactly what I would have wanted to see them play 20+ years ago. Too bad we couldn't have gotten an invite for the follow up at The Hive after party. Saw Stud at the show too.

Tried to keep everything really easy tonight but the stiff legs, lack of sleep, and heat took their toll. Thank goodness for the dog park water fountain at mile 5.

Coming in to work a little earlier than normal allowed me to get into a little bit longer run today; had a nice recovery run from Blue Moon to Papio to Keystone to Mercy to Center to Blue Moon.

Dear "Jeff" cyclists (2): NOT announcing your presence, as you fly by @ 30 mph is NOT okay.
Dear guy on a moped, on the Keystone: no; just, no.
Dear guy who ran red light in front of Alegent/Alegent Creighton/CHI Health Bergan Mercy: you, sir, are an asshole.

Estimated milez in a G.F.Z.

Song of the day: "The Boxer" by Simon and Garfunkel. Great little story behind the "Li-li-li" chorus in the song. Paul Simon had the melody for the chorus, but no lyrics, so he substituted the "li-li-li's" in while planning to come up with chorus lyrics later. He never found suitable lyrics for the chorus (and indeed, the verses stood on their own), so he kept the "li-li-li's" in for the finished product. Unbeknownst to him, whenever he would later perform the song all over the world, it was a guaranteed audience sing-a-long, no matter what language they spoke! I was fortunate enough to see Simon and Garfunkel twice on their 2003 reunion tour; also saw a sensational double bill of Paul Simon and Bob Dylan in St Louis 1999.
