So dumb. I thought I was going to be ambitious and run a good distance on my lunch break on my treadmill. Wrong.  Ran/walked 3 miles.  I am feeling depressed with myself. Whats wrong with me? Treadmill sucks, I will blame it. 

I WILL GET UP EARLY TOMORROW AND DO 7. PERIOD.

I feel like a cheat! These times are not accurate!  Something got screwed up on mile 7 and the distance kept going but the time stopped for about 1 minute or two.  So actual time and ap are not as good as this refelcts!  So, ap was maybe 9:30's??  Still I am satisfied with the 7 before work. HTC is 3 weeks away so for the next two weeks I need to do two-a-days at least once a week.  And then do an easy week the week before.

On a side note, we saw a dead cat up close and personal. So gross!  It's eyes were popping out and all bloody.  Sad. :-(

Now, just have to clean the house top to bottom tonight to get ready for the parentals.

Only walked... no running.  Went on a walk with my parents and scoped out some good blackberry picking. We went up the hill of eola and there were tons! So we went back to pick some after we canned pickles!  Then we made a delicious blackberry pie. What a good day. :)
