Today was a weird eating day, especially for Sunday.
At 10:00am, I ate a hand full of honey nut chex.
At 4:30, I spent about 5 minutes with a spoon and a box of Dryers chocolate carmel swirl icecream
At 6:30, I ate a bowl of strawberries
At 11:00pm, I ate about half a dozen chocolate chip cookies that I made, with milk.
Am I going to die?

Today’s run was a lot harder than I thought it should have been. I’m not sure if it is because I’ve gotten fatter and had to carry more weight, or that I didn’t have enough energy, or that the air was thinner. I guess the best thing to do is to run again on monday.
I went on another run today. Hopefuly I can get another two runs in this week. I didn’t feel so tired during this run, although it still wasn’t easy. I’m working on just getting used to running. I did a 20 minute run this time, with 5 minutes of walking at both the beginning and end. I found out that it is about a 10 minute (slow) run over to Miriam’s house.

I went on another run today. It was of similar length to my other run I did on Monday, maybe just a little longer than last time. The first half was uphill and the second half was downhill.
It rained for the entire run. I guess one of the advantages of running in Oregon is that there is plenty of oxygen and plenty of rain.
The water in Oregon tastes good.
Today I ran my first mile in my marathon training. I walked for 7 minutes, ran for 15, and walked for another 7, so the whole thing took me about a half an hour. I guess a mile in 15 minutes doesn’t seem very good. I wasn’t going for speed, nor was I going for distance, I was going for time. My main goal was to get my muscles used to moving and my heart use to beating. Another couple weeks of easy running like this and I should be able to actually run for speed or distance (but the speeds or distances still probably won’t be impressive).
It felt good to run though. The oxygen in Oregon is nice. My favorite part of a run is the last one or two hundred feet where I sprint as fast as I can go until a certain point which I’ve picked out to be the end.

Well, today I had this lab due. And so I stayed up half the night typing up the computer code for the lab. I was typing it on my laptop in my kitchen. My plan was to bring to code with me to school and finish the lab up early.
The first problem came because I slept in too much and missed my first class. Not only that, but I missed the time I had originally planned on coming to the lab.
So by the time I finally got to the lab, I went to reach for the floppy disk where I thought I had saved the code, and I realized that I forgot my floppy disk at home. So I walked all the way home (another 25 minute walk), and I grab the floppy disk, and decide to take my bike back to save time. So I finally get to the lab 10 minutes later, put the floppy disk into the computer, and I realize that I forgot to have copied the data from my laptop onto the disk. So I ride my bike home, and grab my laptop this time, and ride back. Finally after about an hour and a half of walking/riding back and forth, and probably about 3 miles, I had the file which I should have had in the first place.
