Day 6 - PTT Run #3

This run came after a day of holiday shopping with my 2 year old which wasn't so bad except we had to also do our grocery store run immediately after. At the end of this, he began to melt down. My run was 90% based on my need to release tension. This made my run feel heavy to begin with. Another stressful factor was the P.O.C. headphones I switched to. They are a pair of standard issue ipod headphones. I knew better than to use them but I wanted less weight in my ears. However, I sacrificed the effects of heavy bass. It felt like I was listening to my playlist in a can of corn. So now I know what to ask for for Christmas. I cut some time off my 2 mi. run but had to make up for the heavy half by increasing speed on the second half. It wasn't too much harder but I don't see my self going that fast on the street. I guess I won't know till I try.
