I did.  I ran most of my walk (I suppose when you only walk about half a mile you can start calling it a run instead without inflating anything, right?), covering 2.8 miles in about 34 minutes.  I say about because inevitably every time I try to get a good mileage read I touch the screen on my phone <em>just<\/em> right and it messes something up.  Today I accidentally paused the tracker for a quarter mile that I ran right at the beginning with my best pacing.  Grrr.  But really, what does it matter?  It DOESN&#8217;T!  That said, it&#8217;s still fun to have an accurate read of what I&#8217;m doing.  Technology.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m at this weird kind of point with my running.  What next?  I have realized it&#8217;s a mind over matter thing and once you get the endurance and lung burn out of the way, you&#8217;re left wondering how fast you should add mileage.  I kind of asked around today to the folks who I know who run and they all just said listen to your body.  Do what feels good and right.  Add enough.  And above all- listen to your body.  After my hip scare I definitely am paying attention to that part, and it does deserve repeating for me.  When I&#8217;m out there and I see the next goal (I can make it to the next corner, then stop) and then I hit that goal, take stock of my body and realize I feel the same as I did when I made the goal, I have a tendency to tell my brain to shut up and I keep going.  Even if my legs are getting wobbly and my hips are getting achy.<br \/>\nThe coolest thing was coming home from that run and entering the data into my livestrong account.  It said I burned 860 something calories.  I told Bradley and we were both doubtful.  So then I went to this cool <a href=\"http:\/\/www.healthstatus.com\/calculate\/cbc\">calorie burn calculator place online<\/a> and it said that I burned over 1100 calories!  Love working out at this weight.  It is so gratifying!
