ok. quick update first, then ranting.
Tuesday: 3/4 - 2 miles, 24:19. No stopping. Felt really good.
Today: 3/9 - 2 miles, 22:51. One 2 minute break in the middle.
Now the rant: Stupid google pedometer. I mapped out what I thought was a 3 mile route. I went and ran it and was pleasantly surprised when I finished the first mile and a half in 11:12. Skeptical, but surprised. But then I decided that the second mile and a half would be slower and harder. Then I get home and my watch says 23 minutes. And I think "there is NO way I ran 3 miles in 23 minutes. That's less than an 8 minute mile. No way." So, I calculated it again and it turns out that the first time I was calculating in kilometers, not miles. Arrrggghhh!!!! So, I just managed to run 2 miles in 23 minutes. Go me.

Yay you!!! If it helps any, my 2 miler today was at an 11:30 pace. Some days are just like that. It's the distance that's really the important part... right?
yeah sure. the distance. I'll try to keep that mind next time I try to convert kilometers into miles.
