How not to do it

The other day I did my usual loop around campus only to discover, upon returning to my office, that I had managed to lose the key to my office somewhere along the route. Talk about feeling like an idiot. So then I proceeded to walk the entire route again - this time in heels - in a futile attempt to find the key. Of course it was unsuccessful. Luckily for me, someone else found the key and turned it in. On the plus side, I think I've discovered a new cross training routine... speed walking 2 miles in heels. I was sore for the next three days.

I have officially started training for the Broad Street Run. However, given that I've been keeping my weekly mileage at 15 or above, I'm actually already running more miles than the first weeks of the training program call for. So I can just keep doing what I'm doing for another month. I'm already getting anxious about starting to train for the Philly Marathon and that's still many months away. I think I'm just looking for a change in routine. Maybe there's something to that speed walking in heels thing.
