Double Mile, Whole Foods, Last 2 Days September 28, 2010 09:21:45 PM
After trying for 2 weeks I was finally able to run 2 miles in 16 min. I've only ever been able to do it once before. It's a lot harder than it sounds! I am currently in my late 20s at 150 lbs and near 6 feet, so running this distance in that time is actually the requirement for a passing grade in the Army's boot camp. I found that to do it on a treadmill the easiest pattern for me is to run the first .75 miles at 7.5 mph, than .25 at 8 mph, this will get you an 8 min mile, then repeat for the second mile.
Just this past weekend Khine was here again and this time we discovered another neat new area worth exploring in the greater Nashville area. It's sort of like a downtown area of Green Hills. Lots of outdoor shops and places to eat, but my favorite place of all, the whole foods stores! Man these places are great. I've heard about them, but have never actually gone myself. Not only do they have all the good for you healthy and organically grown stuff, it's their variety too, they have herbs, grains, and other ingredients you just can't find in normal grocery stores. And the cheese and beer selection! OMG, I felt like a kid in a candy store. Cheeses of all ages and worldly origins, and beers from all different micro breweries. They even let you build your own 6 packs like the vintage cellar back at VT. Also, if you go on the weekends, there are enough free samples throughout the store that you could practically make a meal of it. Oh and their salad and hot bars are better stocked than any all-you-can-eat restaurant I've ever been to.
Other things of mention. Today my skynet server stopped running, I think it's hard disk is dying but not sure yet, it keeps freezing after about 2min after booting. Yesterday I blew up a mushroom in the microwave, sounded like an m80. There was mush every where. Next time I'll be sure to cover my curry :-) Tonight I still smell the faint remnants of pesticide in my bedroom, so if no one sprayed last night, there must be a dead cockroach in there somewhere.
