28 December 08

Aidan and Nick were both feeling a bit delicate after a late night out, but went out for a jog (Aidan is recovering from knee surgery, so it was very gentle). They stayed out over an hour and went to the local park and used the open-air gym equipment. They arrived home covered in more dry grass, and brought back two huge mikan (a type of orange) picked from a tree there.


It was a nice bright day so I suggested that we take the boat to Odaiba because Aidan hadn't been there before. I popped into the mall while they walked on along the waterfront, and managed to blitz three shops in half an hour, rejoining them with a small haul of sale items for Emily and me. After our stroll along the side of the bay we found that our usual little cafe was closed, so we took the monorail back to Shibaura and had a quick coffee and snack at Peacock coffee shop.


A run in the evening was my first for a couple of weeks. Though cold I had my best outing in ages, running fast (for me) and coping well with Yuureizaka hill. I'm surprised my performance isn't deteriorating more, given how infrequent my runs are.
