I’m not sure if I am any better or any worse than yesterday, but I’m definitely still very sore. That’s no excuse, of course, but I did try to take it a little easier today as I auditioned a few more songs for my running playlist. Songs that made the cut: Complicated – Avril Lavigne, Fishin’ in the Dark – Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Any Man of Mine – Shania Twain, Sixteen – No Doubt, Whip It – Devo, In Bloom – Nirvana, Losing Grip – Avril Lavigne, Happy Now – No Doubt. I still need more if I’m ever going to finish a 10k without walking.

I had a hard time keeping a consistent cadence as I jumped from song to song trying to find the right rhythm. Sometimes I ran a few minutes at 7.2, 6.5, 6.2, 6.0, 5.5, and way too much walking at 4.0 mph. Amazingly, I managed to stay on for 6 miles without pausing anything.

Jumping jacks: 50
Push-ups: 100
Time at mile 1: 0:09:44
Time at mile 3: 0:31:21
Time at mile 6: 1:07:35
