I didn't actually intend to do 3.5 miles today, especially as I haven't run since Saturday's race, but right about the time I was going to quit, “Alice's Restaurant” came on my iPod, and the version I have is eighteen minutes, thirty-six seconds, so I did a few more laps. Before that, I was going to quit, but “Brick House” came on, and after that a Hanson remix, and I'll be damned if I'm going to wuss out to Hanson.
So, 3.5 miles, which included about three walking laps, so we'll say 2.75 miles running. Whoo!
A good iPod mix makes all the difference! BTW I did a 6K walk in under 1 hour, meaning I am marginally faster than a month ago. And, I stopped weighing myself after I was doing the marathon training in 2005 and dropped 2 sizes but stayed the same weight. I have dropped almost a size in the last 4 months myself. Its all about the clothes for me! Katherine
