Workout notes 17 outside 3:47 via: Boredom via Broadway until mile 10, then Forest Hill to Prospect to Glen Oak Park; one lap in upper Glen Oak, out past the playground to the road that runs past Woodruff High School, to Madison (Steamboat) to Hamilton, down to the Gateway building, along Water street/trail up to Kumpf then back to MLK, up to Moss, then to Cooper.

After that, I did 3 on the treadmill in 37 minutes.

The outside part had pretty good footing; the part along Grandview was quicker as I caught up to some slower runners; one was a cute lady in clingy spandex tights.

It was 19 F when I started and above freezing when I finished. I didn’t drink a drop while walking outside but had to use the bathroom twice en route and once prior to getting on the treadmill. The cold air really activates my kidneys!

Boxing: I watched Delvin Rodriguez beat Troy Browning in 10 rounds. Browning is 41 years old and trains after he finishes his route on the garbage truck; I really like this guy. But at 41, he was simply not quick enough to stay with the tall, lean Rodriguez who beat him to the punch all day long. Rodriguez won every round on every judge’s scorecard save one round for one judge. Terry Alas had it 98-92, which I thought was about right.

I had watched Browning upset an up and coming fighter a few months earlier.
