Perspective

On Saturday, after I finished my 8000 meter race, I met my friend Joe and was showing off my Nike+ (my new favorite toy!).  I was showing off the history that it records for me: my cumulative miles, personal bests and total calories burned.  Joe pointed out that according to the Nike+ I hadn't yet run a marathon cumulatively!  That shut me up quickly and got me focused on starting the 5.4 miles that we ran together. 

By the way, that run with Joe put me up to 29.9 miles and past a marathon.  Cumulatively, I am now well past a marathon distance.  For my 11 recorded runs I am up to 44.80 miles. (These totals do not include many of my early runs)
