break through

so i did it... i broke the streak of not running. i realize that the marathon from two years ago still had its power on me but i defeated it today. i went for a run, and to my surprise it felt good. it was only 2.5 miles but i did it in good time and i didn't hurt anything. i'll be back up to 26.2 miles in no time.

water cube

i found my new favorite work of art. they call it the water cube. this new aquatic center for the 2008 olympics is a masterpiece. the honeycomb building covers 17 acres without the need for a central support beam. amazing! the middle of each honeycomb is a thin plastic pillow filled with air that ways 1% less than glass, insulates better than glass... and the list goes on.

who, what, when, where, and why????

what do you think is going on here?
