May. 13th, 2005 06:26 amDid my first Central Park circuit with Empire Skate Club in years last night. That's, mmm, six miles, I think. Start from Columbus Circle, follow the loop around the entire middle of the park, end at CC again.
There's a shortcut around 110th or so, maybe a bit earlier- I forget exactly. It cuts across the park and usually about half the skaters take the shortcut and wait for the rest on the other side.
I did not take the shortcut, despite being completely out of shape.
I'm still physically tired despite going to bed early last night, but that's okay. This tired comes from successfully negotiating the reason many of the skaters take the shortcut. It's not the distance that gets them. It's the fact that there's a slope that goes up and up and up and up and up and SWEET MOTHER OF GOD WHEN IS THE UPGRADE GOING TO STOP. They call it Cardiac Hill.
I made it. Yay me.
Gonna be there next Thurs. too if at all possible.

On another note I have actually gotten off my arse and begun writing the next WYGO? chapter. Art Weasley's currently waiting for the damned meeting with Aloyisius Nacknouck to finish, and very shortly he will get Peter Venkman's hand on his shoulder and hear the words, "Walk with me, Arthur, talk with me", but in the meantime can anyone enlighten me as to just what sort of personal timepieces wizards use?
