. . . you really wish they made portable tv's that worked well for running. . . even though you are running outside! Seriously, that thought crossed my mind today as I was running on my mom's treadmill and I made it through an hour of 3 minute runs and 2 minute walking intervals. I got through the first half of Iron Man and I wondered to myself what I was going to do during the race to keep my mind busy. I mean, as if running around a beautiful lake isn't enough . . . I guess I just need something more.
I was thinking of maybe seeing if I could download some books onto my ipod. Does anyone know. . . can you do this? The only problem with books on tape is that unless the reader has a great voice, I can't stand them! It totally ruins the book for me!
Also, with the weather forcast this weekend I started wondering about other alternatives to running outside. . . I mean just in case it DOES actually snow on Saturday! I was wondering, Lahni, where did you get your workout video??? That sounds like a good alternative!
My brother also forwarded me a 10 K running route that he has come up with . . . and . . . well . . . it does look like it is a long one! It is partially around a reservoire, and I am pretty sure that I will need to try it before I actually run in this race. I am just scared to death of actually running 10K! Hmmmmm I guess I will just take it one step at a time and hopefully that will get me closer to my goal!

I got my video at Target, but I'm sure you could find it at Walmart or something. As for books on tape, the Artemis Fowl ones are AMAZING! The guy that reads them, does different accents for all the characters. It's great! I just took them out of the library and imported them all to itunes and I listen to them while I clean the house. Once I get through them all, I'm going to have to find something else though.
