Let's see: bit the bullet and started running again. Found a little 5K training schedule at nikerunning.com. No plans to run a 5K, but a structured plan is helpful. Bought a new pair of New Balance running shoes at Sportmart for about 50% off.
We saw a performance of Ein Deutsches Requiem by the Apollo Chorus at Orchestra Hall on Saturday afternoon. Our seats, in the front row of the gallery above the balcony, were a lot like the upper deck at Comiskey. Now that's steep.
