so i did actually manage to go for a decent run yesterday…decent in distance, at least, but definitely not in time. it turned cold outside all of a sudden, so i ran two miles on the treadmill. my “famous” friend was there again, so we talked for a while. he works at nasa too, so we talked about columbia, and also about running. hhe’s following this 26-week “build up to a 10k” book that he bought after christmas. sundays are the long run days, so yesterday he was doing 5 miles. what a wuss i was with my 2 miles.
anyway, the treadmill was making my legs hurt (i don’t know why it does that, aren’t treadmills supposed to be easier on your legs?), so i walked back to my apartment. by the time i got to the door, i had cooled down enough that i talked myself into running another 1.1 to make a nice 5k. so i did a lap around the complex, and one leg down the street. and the good news was that the run took away the groggy headache i’d had all day up to that point.
anyway. i wish i could write about something more exciting, but my life has been pretty routine lately. i looked at the calendar today, and was shocked to find that it is february 17th. february will be over in, like, less than two weeks! where did it go??
i think my car is leaking oil. not seriously, just like the filter is a tad loose. just drip….(hours pass)….drip. it’s about time for an oil change anyway, so maybe i’ll go do that today.
welcome to my boring life.
