I just came back from a run, and want to share a few things I learned while on this run.

• I love cold weather. I had the whole riverfront path to myself because everyone was likely scared away by the cold.
• Sweat, in certain conditions, is unbelievably efficient.
• Nirvana is really very good. I don't listen to them much anymore, but every time I do, I completely understand why I listened to them so much in high school.
• Kinetic may be one of the greatest iPhone apps ever.
• Paul Simon was right on when he asked "who am I to blow against the wind?" I wondered why I was going so fast until I turned around to come home, and started wondering why I was suddenly going so slow.
• I can now leave Hangzhou. I saw the famous Silver Dragon. (Because the river flows with the tide, sometimes a huge wave comes barreling down the river. I saw it
• My wife is awesome.
