not quite 8 miles

I did not quite run 8 miles today. Instead I walked for an hour on my treadclimber. Yes, I read the Bible and various quotations I had put on a stack of index cards. The quotes are words of wisdom from various famous people such as Mahatma Gandhi, Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee, William James, Dale Carnegie, et al. You can make a deck of cards for yourself like this. I've included lots of calming scriptures in mine. If you do this idea it will be very rewarding. I look forward now to my sauntering one hour retreats on my treadclimber!
