Bloomsday: 40 down who knows how many to go

FITNESS -- It's a wrap for a perfect record of finishing every Bloomsday since the beginning in 1977.

I've never really done it for a time, but rather for the celebration of fitness with nearly 50,000 other winners. Another step toward being ready for the next good thing.

Now I'm set for a good wilderness hike.

See you out there.
