Comments: Very high heart rate today after running. Ran a circuit of the American River College campus combined with a lap around the soccer fields. We are transitioning from Safeway's Sport sunscreen to ones which do not possibly cause cancer; so today we ran out and used some of the Badger sunblock. It is thick and difficult to apply to large areas such as legs and arms. Brought my GPS unit along, and about five minutes into the run the clip which holds the arm strap broke. The unit came with a belt clip, but I am hesitant to add additional weight to my running shorts. Perhaps I can MacGuyver something. ARC's new library seems open to students now. It feels very nice to get exercise. Tomorrow morning (Tuesday) I hope to go for a 45-minute walk in the early morning cool.
