Yesterday morning on the elliptical trainer I was watching the local Miami news and noticed that they were talking about the upcoming U2 concert, I thought that would be pretty cool if it was this weekend and I could somehow figure out how to stay and go to it. Later in the day while I was working I remembered I wanted to look it up and found out that the concert was actually last night. I thought I had to work late last night so didn't really think much more about it. At 6:00 pm the people I'm working for told me to go ahead and leave, they didn't think they would need me anymore, I looked it up and found out the stadium was only 11 miles away and I have a rental car so I decided to jump in and go check it out. Well it took me 1.5 hours to drive 11 miles, finally I ditched the car in a grocery store parking lot and ran the remaining 2 miles to the stadium. Went to the ticket window and they had nose bleed tickets for $34. What a deal. I had a lot of fun, going to a rock concert alone is kind of boring, especially the 1 1/2 hour wait in between the opening act and U2 but it was a lot of fun none the less. I had felt really bad that I missed the SLC concert so I got that out of my system. I ended up leaving early since 11:00pm is way past my bed time. Slept in till 6:00, ran down to the hotel gym, started out on the elliptical and decided I would feel bad if I didn't log actual miles so I got on the treadmill. Progressive run pushed the pace a bit, nothing crazy but definately running instead of the jogging I have been doing this week. 6 miles in 43:50 7:18 avg pace.
