My experiment is going well! This pace, which used to be a stretch for me, is starting to feel almost normal. It's still a push for me, and it takes focus and iron will but it's less hateful with each day. :)

Speaking of hateful, my internet is off more than it's on, my Tivo has become a free spirit who records what it thinks I would like instead of what I ask it to, my problem knee has developed a "click" and there's been major road construction going on right outside my front door for two weeks. These sweat sessions are the only thing keeping me from going on a shooting spree.

    Well, I for one am very pleased that you've channeled your angst into running! LOL. It really is much safer! I am not too keen on learning that one of my DM friends is locked up for going ballistic in public :-) Great job with the running! You're getting quite strong, it seems!!!

    HA! You can tell Kimberly is in the south. That's what folks here say instead of, "Man, she's nuts!!!" "Well, bless her heart."

    Glad the pace is starting to feel "normal". It takes some time to get used to a new pace like this. But you are rocking it. Sounds like you've got some crazy stuff going on. Maybe adding yoga to your routine will help ;)

    I'm just gritting my teeth and hanging on, Alicyn! But my experience tells me that one day it won't seem all that hard. Aren't our bodies amazing?

    Tivo thinks that Scrubs is the same as Seinfeld and I'm sorry, it just isn't!!! Seinfeld can get me through some real rough patches.
