I can't even pace because I live in 600 sq feet. There is no room for pacing in here. Now that it is dark I can pace in the driveway (it's long) but as long as it's hot i can't pace outside until it is too dark to safely walk on my road. Town isn't a place I feel safe walking near dark (we have a lot of drugs here) and there's a state park near here that I could walk at but at dusk and alone doesn't seem smart. I need to find out of the school track is an option. And I have to find the school......(I've only lived here 2 years and spent half of last year unable to walk). I miss my old town where I could start walking as soon as the sun went down enough to make the mountains shadow the streets and then I could pace 4-5 miles safely while listening to my iPod.

I contacted the city pool to find out if they have adult swim times so I could burn off energy without straining my ankle but they didn't respond. And trying to swim laps around a bunch of children isn't fun. No pool at our Y.

So since I can't find a way to do this in a positive way I just want to go. The Forest Gump thing sounds so attractive......
