Doug, I can save you some time. Move house, so that you live two miles from your work. Then you can run HOME two miles every night.

More savings: don't cook!
Some of us live four blocks from our office and walk, not run, home.

If I lived that close I would walk, slowly, to work. And run, quickly, home.

You must not have a honey-do jar waiting for you when you get home.

In San Francisco, maybe so!


Not maybe. Certainly. Tend to spend time in Sausalito. Berkeley is always beautiful.

For a rush, there is always Oakland.
