3 hours researching, page count = 195
Went to the New York Public Library to look up sources on Argentina. I was interested to learn that while the army was centralized in the 19th century, as I had expected, it wasn't until the 1860s, and it was through a very explicit series of reforms that brought together a couple of competing provincial armies. A very different experience from Colombia, which had one standing army but many private armies during the same period. I guess I would call Argentina's experience more of a centralizing one.
My trip to the library was interrupted by a physical therapy appointment: I have plantar fasciitis and shin splints from bad running technique, and PT actually ends up being quite time-consuming: two hours today. But I'm set for tomorrow with another set of sources to consult at the library.

You know, Brian gets shin splints from running. My conclusion: one should not run.
Dearest Son:
As you know i used to run, now i walk as fast as i can.
In 1987 i got the same thing. i learned that i din't know how to properly run and i relearned.
i was able to run for another 10 years until my age caught up with me.
Do take good care of yourself and congratulations on the progress made.
Love, Dad
