Eight minute mile! No, not really. I did do 4, not 3, laps around my block, but I took short breaks to walk and lie on the grass between each one. End of lap times: 2:42, 5:33, 8:05 (with final sprint), 11:05. No pains except after that sprint.
While I was lying down, a white woman in a black backless eveningish gown walked by, and crossed Kimball. Not on the way to or from any CTA stops. Or any obvious gownish destinations, at 11:30am.
After my runs I went to the river park, and saw an old Chinese woman picking what looked blackberries from a tree. My presence seemed to scare her off. I tasted a berry, seemed okay, though I was too paranoid about strange berries to swallow. I'm such a city kid.
A few evenings ago I passed a whole family of raccoons in someone's front yard, on one of the side streets. A couple climed a tree, a couple more tried to just freeze on the grass, more might have tried to retreat.
I've uploaded more galleries, with less selection and as yet no shrinkage of the main images, so anything you click on would be huge.
