joysweeper: (cirque2)
First off, I saw a new commercial on the Discovery Channel.  About how the world is just awesome.  Indeed!  It makes me happy inside.  I love the whole world, and all its sights and sounds... and all its craziness... I love the whole world, it's such a brilliant place...  Impossibly idealistic?  Yes.  Yes it is.  Sweet despite - or perhaps because of -  that?  Uh-huh.

I wonder if this is a real song?

So anyway, on Wednesday I ran a mile for independent fitness.  Clocked in at nine minutes thirty seven seconds.  Huh.  Well, that's not bad.  I still felt like I was going to die, though.  Breathing.  Breathing is the worst thing, and my lungs ache for hours afterwards.

I run a mile three times a week on a treadmill, but that's at a slower pace, and my main complaint there is my ankles.  I wasn't last - I was well before the fat guy - and I made a better time than the last time I tried it - nine minutes fifty eight seconds.  Still slow, though.  Still scoring low on the VO2 Max chart.  Sigh.
