Miles Walked: 1.455
Wow, running outside is much different than running inside. At least today was a really beautiful spring-like day! It was much harder to run outside (hills, a 10 lb. camelbak, free will, etc.) but at the same time it was so much easier to just pick a point and say, "I'm getting to that point and no stopping" and then just zone out until I get there. On the treadmill it's very hard not to look down and check where you are every 20 seconds. This is my route and etc. (courtesy Gmaps Ped):
I pointed out home and highlighted the prison for those of you who have never been here. The prison is closed, of course--we're not idiots. They are in the early stages of turning it into a town center with retail, food, and lots of housing. I wish they'd hurry up, I'd love to walk to decent food (right now we have Burger King, a crappy pizza place, and a new kabob restaurant that is to be tested... perhaps tonight...).
It's amazing how inept I am at Microsoft Paint when I use high-tech graphics software everyday. It's even more amazing that I was in a terribly cranky mood before I ran, and working out MADE IT BETTER. I know this is a scientifically proven fact, but the force of the couch was strong within me. I never thought I'd be happier after working out.
