So many decisions could have been bad!

December 25 Run/Walk: Sunday, meet at 7 am at Starbucks on Forbes/Shady corner; Monday, meet at 7:30 am at the 61C

Yes, Virginia (and thank you Virginia for writing up this message!), there is a run/walk on Christmas Day.  Whoever isn't otherwise occupied can meet at 7 am at the Starbucks at the corner of Forbes and Shady.  Then the next day (the federal holiday) we'll be meeting at good old 61C cafe in Squirrel Hill at 7:30 am.  

After tours of the holiday lights Downtown, we had a nice coffee adventure at Aslin Brewery -- a huge space that opens every day at 6:30 a.m. They don't offer pastries yet, but those will be introduced soon. The biggest challenge of the place was figuring out how to angle park backward, per the design of the parking on Smallman. I've heard people have gotten tickets if they don't back into the spaces.

Discussion: 

  • We learned the term: DTR: define the relationship
