I'm only 4 km away hahaha so that's a pretty lame ass run home for me!

Then it's marginally acceptable.<br /><br />But that's a great run! It just shows how sedentary a society we are becoming when the bar is set so low for these commuter challenge things. One of my buddies can earn points per workout minute. Both of us would get the max points in a one day of weekend workout, and in a couple of work day workouts. <br /><br />Funny how your head starts playing games with you, when really, your feet and legs are doing just fine.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09364395150014197905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5843653167115605408.post-60404580027296294072009-06-04T06:50:05.911-06:002009-06-04T06:50:05.911-06:00You did it!!!
