Re-Do continued...

I swear - I'm not making this stuff up! Work was nuts today - I was trying to get things wrapped up since I'll be traveling the next two days, and it seemed the more I tried, the more work piled up. Ok, so I got out the door closer to 6 than I wanted to, had to drop a coworker off at the dealership, and ran a few errands I had been putting off for way too long.
I thought to myself - (ok, maybe I had an actual conversation with myself - so!) I'll just run these errand, and go home and run on the treadmill. This way, I don't need to worry about it getting dark or storming again - I'll be inside. So, I get home, change clothes, mix up my fuel, etc...get on the treadmill...WHAT?!?! What's going on here - the treadmill WON'T turn on! Dead. Nothing. Nada. I try plugging it in, unplugging it and plugging it in again...pulling the little "key" in and out - everything. I'm going crazy here...why won't you just work? I NEED you to work!
Ok, this is ridiculous - I guess I better get outside before I lose all my daylight. So, plan B (which I'm learning is a good idea for me to have!) - I race over to the park and start running there. I wasn't able to get in the full 2.5hrs, but I came fairly close. And, I didn't feel too bad on the run, just wish I wasn't racing against the clock here.
