Humpday Boredom

Nothing exciting happening this Wednesday. Jenn and I bumped up our 5K yesterday to walk 1 minute, run 3 minutes and we were fine with it. The only problem I had was that I got a little bored during the 3 minute runs. With 2 minutes, it's just enough time to look forward to the walk coming up...just enough time to scan the gym and check everyone out and wonder what they are thinking, just enough time to check out the comercials on the TV. But with 3 minutes, there's that whole extra minute where I can't think of anything else to do. Maybe when I run outside tomorrow, it will be different? More things to look at through the park.

Speaking of running tomorrow, Jenn has to work late tomorrow night :( So looks like I will be running by myself then. It does kinda suck because I like the company and the comfort of running with her; but on the plus side, I can try and run at a faster pace and see how I do. I suggested to her that maybe we could run on Saturday together through the park (now I just have to remember what trails I take since they pick up the signs afterwards on Thursday night).

Tonight, though, Jenn and I are taking a break from the pounding of the treadmill and heading back into the spinning room. It will be a much deserved break from our knees and shins...plus, we get to listen to music.

My friend Nina is headed back out to sea for 3-5 days today. She'll be on an actual rig for her first time...and that means no smoking. So she headed into CVS this morning to get some patches and gum and whatever else she can grab. She smokes like a chimney and I really think she will have a big problem when she does decide to quit. She's set a limit of not smoking past the age of 30, so she's got about 1.5 years left to puff away.

I hope my next post will be more interesting.
