FLORRISANT, Mo.—I love the names of some of the streets in the Jim & Karen Perkins Neighborhood. Foggy Bottom Drive, for instance. This morning I jogged the four-mile Rhapsody Lane Loop in 40:56, with splits of 10:39, 10:12, 10:01, and 10:04. I believe those can be considered consistently negative splits, since the last mile is uphill nearly every step of the way. I felt wonderful. In fact, and I have considered this carefully, I might have just had my best, most-comfortable run in metropolitan St. Louis since the summer of 1976. Maybe I should start eating five pounds of Chinese buffet food the night before all of my runs.
Late this evening, I walked the Foggy Bottom Drive Loop in 30:43.
The DFL Green Bay Packers lead the Oklahoma Joes, 135.74-60.44, after Sunday's play, and can't lose, short of a parting-of-the-Red-Sea sort of miracle. The NFL Packers defeated the New Orleans Saints, 28-27.
