- I decided I could probably reduce the length of the morning run on Sunday.
- Ten minutes leaning into the wind, since it achieved an air-speed of near
- enough a hundred miles an hour, was probably exercise enough for anyone.

- This weather opens up all sort so possibilities. I could go for quite a
- long run, provided it was always heading into the wind, on the small patio
- outside the penthouse. Mind you, a sudden calm could be tricky; like
- when the road stops on one of those yuppie treadmills they have in posh
- conference hotel basements, and the victim is precipitated into a wall.

- Except that it would be without the wall, of course.
