Here I Am!

Hey Doc.

You're right. I've been running outside and listening to podcasts and barely doing any other exercises at all, so I had not much to report. Happily last night I managed to do 100 pushups (three varieties) and 125 ab crunches (four). Tomorrow night, if I don't make it to HIIT, I will include squat jumps and tricep dips and upright rows in the 100s.

I can tell you that the runs get better each night and that the podcasts have included: a novel called Lost Gods by Drew Beatty, whose voice reminded me of my Canadian brother's; an audiobook called The Brain Mechanic; Slate's Culture Gabfest and then Lexicon Valley (there were only three episodes, but I liked it); some recent TEDTalks; Ask the Low Carb Experts; Brain Science Podcast (but the lady's voice is bugging me a lot); and Mysterious Universe (are those guys Australian? I like their voices, and the stories they report are just silly).

I am looking forward to a bunch of iTunes University stuff I downloaded too. I think you'd like some of it. Here's what I got: Restorative Justice in Action; The New Psychology of Depression; Philosophy - Justice and Morality; and Rules, Rights, and Justice. It's going to be a fun spring!
