According to schedule, I did not run today. I actually missed it, though I took the opportunity to strength train. I have not been following that portion of my schedule. My focus needs to find its way there. I read recently that strength is the key to a 1/2 marathon, core strength specifically. This portion of my training must be more of a priority.
My current Apple/iTunes/Amazon fun is with audiobooks. I have been reading, but the time for that is too little. I also have been thinking about an eReader. To try that, I got Kindle for PCs. I got Jenny Sanford's book, but have not gotten very far. It seems that I already am on the computer so much with work, and I need a break. I have been doing the podcast thing with such satisfying success and fabulous fun.
During the past few months, I listened to 2 books on CD (one that I received as a birthday gift and one that I checked out from the library) during my long commute to the office. I enjoyed them.
Presently, I am interested in Michael Lewis' books. I am hearing/reading so much about his new book, and I finally watched The Blind Side movie. I can't imagine how I would find the time right now to read one of his books. However, perhaps I could listen. As a test, I started with Liar's Poker. I enjoyed it tremendously for so many reasons that I will not now take the time to list. Suffice it to say that I just downloaded The Big Short. Can't wait for my commute tomorrow to start listening.
