I just got back from a two mile run.
Wait...
What?
Yeah. It's getting that desperate.
But, there is some good news:
1. This was the single longest distance I've ever run in my life. And I didn't do the fat kid shuffle even once! (Hey, I was a fat kid once, so I'm allowed to say that.)
2. This was by far the fastest I've ever run. It took me 15 minutes to run the two miles. That's about 7:30 per mile. My middle school/high school single mile record? 10:30ish. Well there's some improvement, and certainly some room for some more.
Running is okay. It seems short. I was ready to stop when I got back to my house, but I felt like I could keep going. Apparently I can't kill myself while running (two miles) like I can on a bike.
Oh yeah, bikes. That's right.
Guy number one: "Probably have it by Friday."
Guy number two: "Yeah, probably 10 - 15 days if we're lucky."
Same shop.
I'm not holding my breath, but I can't wait either.

Track Star!
Hahahaha fat kid shuffle! I did it, too...but always did the 15 minute mile, true style.
Hey running ain't so bad. I've been going out with a friend and running up to 5-7 miles once or twice a week. It really makes me feel better on the bike. Plus it's a really efficient workout- running hard for an hour is so much more work than riding a bike for an hour.
