I wasn't sure if I felt up to five, but I spent a little more time lallygagging than I thought I should, so I ran only 4.5. I was hoping to go easy, but I may do some longer, slower distance tomorrow. The difficulty of that, of course, is doing that on the treadmill. The alternative is to do something ridiculously easy and just sit there for two hours, which I've actually thought about doing. For that, I would need a book.

At least I'm in the gym BEFORE New Year's, not just after. I'm actually starting to work off some of my uncertainty-induced lard from the first two weeks of being here. That's encouraging.
