Interview

Ran 4.1 miles on treadmill, sloooow, 7:57 average pace or so (7:30 or so incline adjusted). Supposed to be a recovery run, though I haven't done anything in particular I need to recover from except 20+ miles in three days, a lot for me still. Shin's tender again, it's changing though, seems to be moving lower down, less that two inches above funny bone. Maybe I should knock off cranking up the incline, finished at 6.0 today.

Slow but still pretty tired, due largely I'm sure to a dose of Ativan/Inderal this morning before my interview — dang my anxiety ridden brain. Anyway, it went very well, D is ready to make me an offer, comparable to the offer I got last April but turned down. Inclined to just take it, good opportunity to get into mobile/wireless device programming, but also contribute to backend server stuff I'm more familiar with. All Java, I'm a bit rusty there having been into .NET/C# for the past few years, C++ before that, but no matter. And some smart people there I already know.

Elliptical tomorrow, rest, then 5M race on Saturday — teaming up with my 16 year old niece for the Bradford Valentine's Day 6K/5M, she'll run the 6K, she's speedy (low 19:00s 5K, 2:20-something 800 meter), not to mention a wonderful kid.

David,
I'd seen a fair number of referrals coming from your blog. I was struck by similarities between us - same age (to the month at least - today was my half birthday). Have you chosen a marathon for your crack at BQ'ing? You're considerably faster than I am, having a recent PR of 19:32 for 5K on one of those golden days. I think I need to get the weight back down - at 5'11" and 165 lbs., I'm just too heavy to be fast. I'll try to get you added to my blogs posting soon.
