I was working my once-a-month shift at Big Planet today, and after writing a review and getting home I discovered the 3 1/2″ disk I’d saved it to was corrupted. So clearly, I had to go back before someone emptied the computer’s recycle bin. But it’s not that far away—less than two miles—and I started thinking, “Why don’t I jog over there since we cancelled our Saturday run because of rain?” And the next thing I knew, that’s exactly what I was doing. Now I admittedly stopped halfway through because once I got to the store I got three or four minutes of rest while I retransferred the file, but I’m still really happy with my pace. I rounded down what the distance seems to be thanks to my odometer (MapQuest totally lied and said my route was 4.4 miles round trip, which is ludicrous), and after last week’s disastrous running loop, this is a distinct improvement.
