6 mile run to start out August
Back in Japan and the highs are almost as bad as Florida but this time there are hills.

Here's one of the views I had on today's run. Mt. Fuji through the clouds and a array of solar panels.

They're not measly....but if you wanna accrue points fast, hit the pool. I can earn 12 BPh in the pool....on the bike it's more like 4 BPh. Most important is getting out and MYB. I earned none today. Still paddled my kayak around the pond and after got out the chainsaw, splitting maul and axe. I was sweating like the proverbial pig, cutting the grass and splitting wood for 5 hrs. All that work will really put a small dent in the beer consumption this afternoon.
