7 miles this morning.  I got a little bore of the same route, so I mixed it up and little.  I wasn't sure about the distance, so I ran with the GPS.  I hate running with that thing.  When I wear it, I'm constantly looking at it, it's a big distraction.  I know I need to wear it more so I know where I'm at and so it pushes me to got faster, but it kind of takes the fun out of the run for me.

i know what you mean about a GPS being a distraction. for me it's kind of like when you are on a treadmill. when you can see the miles ticking by .1 at a time, it makes 1 mile take forever. but you just can't stop looking at it!!! great run.
