  • step by step

    5.89 miles. i'm starting to feel like when i run less than six miles, or even less than seven miles, it feels a little like... failure. talk about a glass being half empty, right? but i did a whole helluva lot of stairs today. i climbed up and down this set of stairs behind the lincoln that goes down towards the potomac at least a dozen times. anyways, here was the route today:

    (google maps are getting kinda scary man... all the detail is weird.)

    also, i've embarked on a little challenge via my b-i-l's work. we've assembled a team and have to track our steps via a pedometer through the next few weeks and the team with the most steps wins a prize... the goal is to take 10,000 steps a day. the competitive side of me wants to log as many steps as i can for the team to bring us to a win. so, for today, thus far, i'm at 18,037 steps. woohoo!
