So I stopped by the Apple store a few times today (let's just say I was lucky to have meetings just down the street) and each time there were lines. Ridiculous lines that weren't moving. The last time the line looked short, but it turns out they stopped the line as they ran out, again.
I'm hoping to pick one up before this weekend because I'm going to give the City 2 Surf 14K run a shot on Sunday and I'd like to have some sort of GPS device to help me translate kilometers to miles without having to think too hard. I haven't been able to quickly translate miles per hour into kilometers per hour and on a 9 mile run, I don't want to over work the brain. If it has to work too hard, I might have to stop at a bar to quiet it a bit. And while I'm certainly not as prepared as I'd like to be, I figured I should give it a shot anyways. I don't have the miles under my legs to feel comfortable with the distance or the hills, but I have been hitting the gym about 4 days a week and am feeling in pretty good shape.
Speaking of the gym, I have a 6 week status check in on Saturday. It feels similar to the Biggest Loser weigh in without the cattle scale. They take all your measurements and compare those to the last check in, measuring everything from height to weight to body fat percentage. I am rather curious to see if there's been any improvement from the first week. With the pain that those kettle balls have given me, there better be some decent improvement.
In true Matt training fashion, instead of hitting the gym tonight or going for a run, I'm going to see Miike Snow. I've heard he puts on a pretty good show so it should be a nice Wednesday night, most likely with way too many drinks. But hey, what else do I have to do, other than wait and hope Apple gets more phones in tomorrow.
Oh yeah, and work.
