The cold weather, Blue Monday and my insomnia’s comeback haven’t helped on bringing down the treadmill’s cost, nor my 2012 resolution to at least exceed 2011’s mileage by 10 percent. But today I decided to push for the adrenalin boost running gives me, it probably helps kill off the “cobwebs” preventing me from rolling out of bed too. I’m still kicking myself for not achieving this distance goal sooner.
Where are these places? They’re towns (or small cities) along I-10 if I were running from Austin to Kerrville (where I-10 starts for us Austinites) and then heading West toward El Paso, TX/NM. Somewhere I take a turn near Albuquerque (like Bugs Bunny) toward Las Vegas. The gap is rather wide so Midwestern destinations will fill in.
