Don't try this at home !!

Note to self... never do this at rush hour again!!! never ever !!! http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=397673.
I've never really thought of myself as an imbecile. Sure sometimes distracted, sometimes scatterbrained, and sometimes silly, but never have I done anything so stupid as try to run Stratford lane during rush hour traffic. It made perfect sense all day long as I planned my afternoon penance for missing this morning's mini-bomb run... My stomach was finally behaving and I was ready for a good long workout. So out I went. Excited about getting a good sweat on, on the hills of Stratford Lane. Well that comfortable little run all of a sudden became a life and death battle against luxury SUVs and zippy sports cars. That whizzed by just inches from my soggy Asics. Overall it ended up being eight miles of 'chiken' with oncoming traffic. Pace was all over the map. Happy, so happy to still be in one piece.
