I had never tried a treadmill before. Yes that is right, never. I was always the "nah, I prefer walking outside anyways" type, even though I had never really had access to such things as treadmills. But, now I DO have access, and I tried it. Treadmills these days are much more tech savvy than they used to be. And I am not very tech savvy. So the first day I tried one, I unsuccessfully linked to the workout app recommended. I decided to just start and try again at the end of the workout. There were workouts to choose from, but being my first day and a bit strapped for time, I just picked a time and speed and went for it. A bit boring. No. Really boring. Just keep staring at the wall? Look out the window at the parking lot and office building...wow. Riveting. I kept going, looking at the screen at some generic path with computer generated people I was passing.

It's here. October 15th. Half way through the month. Been so in incredibly busy, worn myself out almost every day trying to finish up business at our downtown location and figure out our next steps. Somehow, I still have managed to get some running and walking in. Plus, helping me achieve my NaBloWriMo goals, it gives me great motivations for writing. Looking at the summary of the month, I can hardly believe it.  31.31 miles. 6.55 total hours. 2,966 calories! So, I guess it was okay that I ate some cupcakes (even though they didn't turn out like I planned ), treated myself with some ice cream with chocolate syrup and walnuts, ate pizza (too much), and attacked those sour cream and onion chips.  Imagine if I had eaten a little better! I believe I can start thinking I will break that plateau, well I did break it but the wrong way, I gained weight, and maybe lose a little weight.
