Before I reached the brink of death

Sunday, before the vomiting set in, I logged 7.5 miles.

I spent the rest of the week up 'til today in cloistered, nearly dehydrated lethargy (except for when I nearly fainted in Safeway - that wasn't fun). Food poisoning'll do that to you.

This week: 7. 5 miles
This month: 16 miles
This year: 16 mies

Remaining: 984 miles

4.5 miles on the treadmill.

I hate walking/running on a treadmill, but I hate the thought of being raped and/or murdered while walking/running around the lake at 2 in the morning even more, so ...

Treadmill it is, then.

This week: 8.5 miles
This month: 8.5 miles
This year: 8.5 miles

Remaining: 991.5 miles

A thousand miles

A woman I don't know and will likely never meet has challenged me - by way of my friend Ingrid - to walk, run, bike, swim, bear crawl, pick-a-verb my way through 2011.

So I'm gonna do it.

And I'll bore you all to tears here with my progress.

Jan. 3: 3.5 miles.

(Jan. 5 addendum: I'm changing this to 4 miles - the walk around the lake is 3.5 miles; add in the walk from/to my home, and it gets up dang near 4 miles)
