Jogging

Holy smokes! It is as though every car in the state of California was out on the road today! And driving like idiots! I was pretty darn careful as I made my way this afternoon. No need to get squished just when I am jogging again!

I did a little route by my house and jogged the entire way. Walk/Jog/Run tells me it was 2.76 miles. Now, this was no run mind you. It was a slow jog. But it was tough and it was work....and I did it!

In addition, I took a walk around my block at work during lunch today which clocks in at a little over half a mile. Not a health walk - unless you count mental health!

Today was pretty dreary all day. Very overcast and pretty cool. Until I left work, that is! Blue sky and the sun was shining! I stopped at the Farmer's Market and picked up some strawberries and some cherries.

Dinner tonight features steamed carrots and broccoli. I have some red pepper hummus hiding out around here too. Oh, and strawberries and cherries of course!

Hope you had a great day!

Strawberries and cherries! Ummm. Sounds good. We're picking our strawberries here, too. Very, very good.

Do you use a pedometer? Is that how you know exactly how far you've walked? Mom bought one for me last year but I never use it! I measure the mileage in the car and then know how far I've walked. 2 miles.

They are good. I was really glad I stopped and picked them up. I was kind of wavering on the price but I thought prepared foods cost the same if not more and it is not really that much. Glad I talked myself into it!

I do not have a pedometer. I never have, actually. Although I do think it is an interesting idea to keep track of how much I move in the regular course of a day. Anyway, I usually use this site:

to measure the distance. It is an excellent tool. And can help you plan some fun walks!
