Day 189, 176 To Go

July 8, 2013

Here we go again...its Monday and time to work and suffer.  At least every day I have a run to look forward to.  I really do look forward to it most of the days.  I'd say about 90% of the time I am happy to get out there and run.  Today Honey will be accompanying me as well. 

I needed an easy run day and I needed some cooler weather.  The weather did not cooperate, but running after 7:00 made it cool enough to make it comfortable.  Honey was struggling a little bit as she had a pretty good headache going, but she finished the run anyway.

Here are our numbers:

Time: 25:00

Distance: 2.09 miles

Pace: 11:58/m

Max Pace: 10:05/m

Calories: xxx
Avg HR: xxx

Max HR: xxx

My GPS battery was dead because Derek turned it on and didn't know how to turn it off.  No matter how many times I tell him to not touch anything on my desk, he does.  Perhaps I need to tell him for the 1,001st time!  So, I used my phone and the MapMyRun app to record my stats.

Being that it is a work night, you would think it was a good idea to go to bed at a reasonable hour.  I tried, but as I was flipping through the channels, I came across the latest Batman movie.  I have seen the movie, but I figured I would watch for a little while.  The little while turned into the end of the movie at 2:30am. 

I have trouble sleeping...not for any good reason, but because I stay up to watch TV.  I could easily go to sleep at 10am and wake up bright and early, but I don't.  The only time in my life that I did that was when I lived in Hawaii and I had to get up at 6am for work (an hour to get ready - it takes time to make me beautiful - and an hour bus ride).  So I went to bed at 10pm and woke up at 6am.  I never felt better.  Can't seem to get into that habit again though.  Gotta work on that...

Run for Life!!
