An update, and my 200th post!

I really tore up the paths yesterday running around Lake Harriet. Okay, I tore up the paths, compared to how I've been running the last couple of years. I suppose I should make that distinction. I'm getting much firmer, although I feel like I'm losing very little weight around my waste. I've decided I'm not going to worry about it--my goal is to reach the end of the twelve weeks on this program, and I'm making good progress. And, seriously, I'm only 4 weeks in.

I sat down yesterday and revised another fifty pages of my novel. It felt like a huge accomplishment. It's not going to get great reviews in class--I know the flaws in the piece--but it's an outline of where I need to go, and that's gratifying. It felt like a huge weight was lifted when I finished it up.

I slept very little last night. It was a mix between indigestion and, I realized at around four in the morning, a slight almost-feverish ache from my strenuous run. I took a few Tylenol, felt immediately better, and was able to doze for about an hour before my alarm went off. I'm tired, but I'll survive.

Oh, and this is my 200th post! Wow. I love little mileposts like this.

I'm off! I tutor a kid at a local school, so I need to run!
