My life is pretty great afterall.
And a mile is a lot longer than it seems in the car.

Day 4

Nobody was parked at the gym when I got there just before 7pm which is very strange especially since it is open 24/7... well turns out they were temporarily closed for some reason I have yet to find out so I had to trek it over to another location, the one I ised to go to before i moved.  Did 5.75 miles total 4.5 of that was running... it was kinda nice to watch some tv for once since i havent had cable in over 4 years now...

Day 13

4.25 ish miles... I think my Garmin was a little wacky today, it gave me my first mile as like 11 minutes which even on my slowest day is too sliw and I run this route (minus some of the detours because the salt and pepper bridge is closed) and the 1 mile mark is usually about 3/4 of the way across the bridge but today it was at the MGH T stop.... so I think it was wrong by a bit
