November 13 - 5.85 miles

After taking yesterday off to sleep in, today was the last run before the looming 18 miler coming up on Saturday. I did 5.85 miles in an hour, and average HR was 168 and average speed was 5.8 m.p.h. Since I do no wear headphones while running (whether inside, or out) and occasionally instead of watching the treadmill's "odometer," I'll watch the morning news. Since there's also no closed captioning, so it can be boring sometimes to watch (i.e. today's segment on the largest ball of twine), or even depressing (crime, murder, car accidents, etc.). Today I decided I'd make up my own stories for each segment. A SWAT standoff - well, that would end peacefully. Two ladies and their Christmas bazaar - well, they're selling stuffed reindeers of course. Whatever makes the time go by faster, I guess...right?
