O.K., so there is a bunch of controversy about the movie Noah that is being released this weekend. I just find this beyond hysterical. Now most of the muslim world can't watch it because of Islamic laws on the depiction of the Prophets. And Suni's have a fatwa on the film. Now Christians don't like it because they think it is not biblically faithful. Now of course, the biblical story is scientifically impossible, and defies all possible common sense. Considering how many species of animals existed at the time, how big of a freakin' vessel the ark would have to be, and how you would be able to feed and keep these animals from killing and eating each other over a forty day period. Pretty silly. So the folks can piss and moan that the story is not biblically faithful, kind of like someone watching a superman movie might whine that the origins of superman are not faithful to the comic. Just a hilarious Christian nation that thinks it is really that different than a muslim nation.....
Got in two good runs so far this week and one easy recovery run.....tuesday I ran 9K with a 22 minute threshold interval. Thursday I ran 9K with 5 four minute brisk intervals with two minute recoveries. Today I did an 8K easy recovery run. Sunday I will attempt a longer run of 12 or 13K, if my damn foot lets me. It works o.k. for around 5 or 6K, and then the damn pain begins. I keep icing it multiple times a day. Otherwise, all is going reasonably well in the early stages of training.....

What they didn't tell in the Bible is how Noah trained for this whole ordeal. In order to learn the riggers of sailing large vessels he interned in Iceland under a famous viking teacher. Then was sent to China to learn zoology. Lastly he was shipped to NorthEastern Ohio to see what rain for 40 days and 40 nights looks like.
