I wasn't sure how far I was going to go until I started to go.  I felt like I could do my Lateral 1 run, so I did.  My GPS wasn't working on the way there.  It was tracking my time, but not my distance.  I turned it off at the half way point and cleared it.  When I turned the app back on I could see that it was in the right neighborhood, but it still wasn't quite picking up.  So I rebooted my phone and it worked fine after that.  I saw two pretty ladies on the way back and I was so completely drenched in sweat and embarrassed that I couldn't look at them.  I hope my lack of eye contact made them not be able to see me, too.

I'm feeling better every day.  My RunKeeper App goes off every 5 minutes and tells me my average pace.  I was pleasantly surprised to hear my pace on the first alert, and I pretty much held the pace.  The fourth mile was a little slower, but not much.

I ran 2 seconds less than yesterday and 0.05 miles less.  About a quarter mile to go I passed by a lady wearing headphones.  You know that loud voice you make when you're wearing headphones and you can't hear hear  your voice over the music?  That was her as she said, "Are we having fun yet?"
