Total Distance

10.00

10 miles on the home treddy while watching Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Fun to watch again before the next installment. I love dystopian fiction. It's interesting to see how different authors think we're all messed up or how we could be when freedom goes away.

Not sure of average pace, but I finished in 1:24 or so. Good run. I'm enjoying these shoes. And I ran on the TM because it was 6F outside with a windchill of -7. I'm not too interested in that kind of cold but I could if I had to.

I blasted through those miles watching such a great movie. It felt easier than my 4 mile TM runs this week. Love me some Katniss Peeta and Gale.

Nice run...and I couldn't if I had to!

Preston, it's all about the right equipment. You could with winter gear, but why worry about it in SA? I know I wouldn't. :)

Way too cold to be outside, to be sure. CF was much better than HG. I hope the last two installments continue the improving trend. The books, on the other hand, got worse from 1-3.

Kam, spot on about the books. I enjoyed them but the excitement waned as the words continued. The last 2 movies will be interesting. How will Pres Snow meet his demise? What will 13 look like? Hmm.
