Lol.
Ive got 3 jogs under my belt for the past 6 days. Ill take it! Hopefully go again today and hoping, just maybe, that it wont be fucking awful anymore.

It gets better...
im sure at some point! God i miss running around Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis.
That's a nice area. I've never ran around there but my wife is obsessed with Tilia restaurant and my daughter loves that bookstore with all the animals running around inside, so we end up there 3-4 times/year.
Next time you are there go out for a run. Harriet, Calhoun, Lake of the Isles are all connected. If you hit each lake twice you can get yourself a nice half marathon in.

No. Get the Forerunner 230 for half that price.

I really need a new watch. My old forerunner has a broken back button.

My 11 year old just ran a 6:24 mile at the end of year 5th grade track and field day. He went out too fast and it cost him in the last 150 meters as he went from 2nd to 4th (a 2 second gap). The winning kid was a little Mighty Mouse and ran it in 6:02.
