There, I said it. I'd rather run in 100-degree heat or below zero weather than run on a treadmill. I have an awesome gym, but it's just so boring, no matter how you package it. I had to do 3 miles this morning, which I did no problem at a 9:13/mile pace (based on the machine). This new treadmill scares me. It has so many bells and whistles. Apparently you can even plug your iPod into it, and something will happen. I don't have an iPod, so that's irrelevant. I just used my radio to listen to the TV news that's on display on a few big TVs in the room. Ugh, boooooring!
Speaking of boring, my most boring birthday ever, my 29th, is 10 days from now. Oh hooray. We're going camping to celebrate, which is awesome. I just wanted to remind my vast readership that I don't need any presents this year. If you are inclined to get me anything, make a donation to my race. That's all I need, and that's the most important thing to me right now.
After my boring run, I walked through Penn's campus on a longer, but prettier route to my office. Penn is gorgeous! It was so brisk this morning, and campus was so quiet. The trees, the old buildings, everything was astonishing. I love working here and being part of this community.
Sunday is the Philly Distance Run! I'm excited, not as much as last year, but still excited. I'll post my bib # when I get it tomorrow and how to watch my progress on the race. It starts at 7:45AM!
TGIF, right? It's been a looooong week, and with the weird schedule, I missed my running partner this week. We'll catch up next week, right, hubby?
