Let’s Pretend We’re in Antarctica

June 9th, 2014 @ 7:44 am PDT

Nike Free 4.0I had a brutal migraine when I went to sleep last night. I managed to make it through Game of Thrones and then conked out, still in pain despite several pharmaceutical attempts to relieve the ice pick in my brain. It was still there when my alarm started ringing at 0600, but I knew it wouldn’t be able to survive a long run. So I laced up my sneakers and hit the pavement.

Don’t get me wrong: It hurt like hell to run. Every footfall was murder. But by the time I hit three miles, my headache was gone and I was drenched with sweat. I’ve done a good job of adding a quarter-mile to each run for over a month now, and was happy to push it to 9.75 miles. Ten is a nice round number lurking in the future.

I’m getting increasingly frustrated with the Nike Fuel Band app, but the Running app is still performing like a champ.

I just ran 9.76 mi @ a 9'45"/mi pace with Nike+. http://t.co/lt5OyOsTQh #nikeplus

If credit card debt or student loan payments are killing you, I highly recommend taking a look at SoFi. Their low rates and incredibly quick and simple application process might be just what you need.
