Running... Again?

Image
  If you know me you know there was a time about 10 years ago or so where I was running. A lot. At least 5 days a week and at least 5 miles a run. I wasn’t training, I wasn’t preparing for a race or a marathon. I just found myself enjoying the time spent running. I wasn’t obsessed with numbers, but I kept track of them all and liked seeing improvements in time and distances. It was good physical health and mental health. Then I tweaked my knee. Not bad enough that I couldn’t walk on it, just a tweak that told me I needed to back off of running for a little bit. So I decided on 2 weeks. At the end of 2 weeks I aborted a run very early as the pain was still there. 2 weeks became 3, became a month, became 5 years. 

He's not just a pretty face.

It was 50 years ago today that "the other moon watch" earned it's moniker while on Commander Scott's wrist. If you don't know the story, basically Scott's Speedmaster had a malfunction so he ended up wearing a Bulova prototype that Bulova had given him. And the rest is history. Though a big watch in all dimensions, and a quartz, this continues to be one of my favorite watches, and I look forward to completing my sub-collection of moon watches when a Speedy eventually gets added.
