Running: A Fever

Medical Department: My general practitioner looked at the special Neck x-ray that I had done recently, and said a bunch of words like “degenerative” and “calcification”. Words over five syllables just sound scary. So the next step is to see a Neurosurgeon – stay tuned. I am wearing sunscreen today, so you can do not only as I say, but as I do. I have fair skin and if you do too, you’ll want to be especially protective of your skin. Most people out on the trail are in their own microcosm. They listen to music or a podcast or a sermon or all of the above on their earbuds. They may not notice me or hear me say “Howdy”. And we may never see each other again, or we may meet on the way in the opposite direction or on the other side of the lake. I also see at least three people apparently having phone conversations.
