Hello and welcome to episode 231 of the Thinking Elsat Podcast in Los Angeles. I'm Nathan Fox with me in Vienna,

Virginia Ben Olson. What's the latest Ben? It's warm and so I went running today

which was great and hitting some faster times that's exciting times for the mile or yeah

you do one miles is that what you do I do two miles actually yeah two mile run

yep what's every fastest best career two miles like

ever in my life in the past well in your 40 some on years let's say in your recent, some unusually. In recent life, it's 630, but that's flat pavement, you know, no ups and downs. yeah nice day not too hot but summer is

13 minutes for your two miles yeah I think when I did that I only did a mile

I just oh I ran out yeah and just said okay what can I do so but

six yeah six thirty was exciting right now I'm like closer to like seven thirty so I

got I'm trying to get back to that

But I'm also running two miles so I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure where I'm at exactly Well good luck

Thanks man.

Happy it's not winter time anymore.

Yeah, any cherry blossoms yet?

No, that doesn't happen until like April,

but, or at least I don't think it does.

I guess with global warming though, it might. I mean mean that's why I was thinking this morning I was like oh this is nice

so I'm like wait a second it's it's February it's early February I'd

it's nice now, but we're slowly becoming a California climate I guess.

Perpetually warm.

Today on the show we have a purls versus turds that a listener suggested. It's about reading comp.
