Wogged at Strawberry Patch late this aft. Walked for one mile at 17 min. pace and wogged the 2nd mile at 14 min. Have not had a chance to check out speed walking tips from the website yet. It is really interesting how you get new aches and pains that just show up out of the blue and then go away just as quickly. When I feel a new pain I start to get very anxious thinking I have an injury and then poof, it's gone...that is a very good thing! For some reason, I had difficulty motivating myself to go to the park today. I used to look forward to going, but not lately. The thing that pushed me out to the park is our INCREASING mileage and I want to keep up so I can DO IT. I have bought a nifty timepiece that is suppose to do everything under the sun and I can not even figure out how to enter the interval info. I am determined to figure it out for myself and do not want my son to just do it for me. I am calling the "800 number" tomorrow for help...that is somehow different than asking my son. I am so not a techie and am such a wanabe techie. I will have it all figured out by October!

I originally had planned to do the Sat. morning mileage and then drive to Pensacola, FL afterwards. After reconsidering and remembering how exhausted I was after only 7 miles last Saturday, I have decided that if I sat in a car and drove 4 hours afterwards, that it would take the jaws of life to remove me at my mom's house! So I will do 8.5 miles with Kristy at the Rez on Friday afternoon. Then on Sat. morning I will drive to Pensacola...makes more sense, but I sure will miss out on all the excitement of doing the Cannonball. I will also miss the next Saturday because I am going to a wedding in New Orleans. I love getting together with y'all on Saturdays, so it is a downer to miss the opportunity! Hope some MM'ers earn some medals Saturday!
