Went to the track again Saturday (last year).  I jogged another half mile around the cushy track.  I don't know how else to describe the surface of the track other than to say it's cushy with just the right amount of give. 

I walked the other half mile.  I'm feeling the strength return to my legs.  Back in my day, these limbs used to be super buff.  I played soccer for eight years of my childhood.  It's nice to feel them start to wake up again. 

There were more people at the track this time.  There was a guy a bit older than me and stronger.  He laped me at least once.  Glad I could be of motivation to him.  Probably gave him something to brag about when he got home, "Hey wifie, guess what. I laped this young guy!"  Happy to help. 

Another couple of people showed up after my first lap - dad and his 4-5 year old son.  They warmed up with calesthenics.  Then a guy with a dog came by.  He was on skates.  They stayed off the track because of the dog prohibition signs posted.  Another couple, husband and wife showed up with three dogs.  I started thinking - what is this, a dog track?  But they took off as soon as they saw the signs.
