I ran 4.1293 miles today at 6-minutes-jogging, 2-minutes-walking intervals. I’m still averaging 14 minutes per mile. I was anticipating torture when I started out today but I bought a jug of powdered Gatorade and have been mixing it in with my water for the past couple days and it’s made surprising difference in my endurance. The only problem was that my right groin area started hurting around mile 3. Hopefully my continued stretching will help.
I’ve been upgrading my computer set-up at home. After 9 months of working on a 15-inch laptop, I picked up a 24″ Samsung display, Apple wireless ultra-thin keyboard and Mighty Mouse. Working is a pleasure now and the keyboard is particularly enjoyable. This thing is so tiny and cool. The mouse presented a problem with Warcraft at first but I figured out how to use the scrolly ball as my look-and-move button. I also bought a new PC - a 2.4 GHz Quad-Core with 2 gigs of RAM and a 500GB hard drive, despite the bad reviews. Out of the box, video didn’t work and I had to open it up and re-seat the video card to get everything working. This thing is fairly bad-ass, however. Yay!
Work is still keeping me busy and although I’m looking forward to starting school on the 16th, I’m a little concerned about balancing school and work. I’ll just have to be careful to schedule work lightly at first and see how it goes.

Glad to see you finally got a good windows machine. I upgraded my home system to quad-core w 4 gigs or ram. Too bad I don’t play games on the things. I had to put in a new motherboad so I figured what the heck!
