Read-a-thon Hours 7-8

UPDATE FOR HOURS 7&8 (ALREADY??)

Since last update:
Pages: 53 (Catch Me If You Can)
Time: 55 minutes
20 minute run

TOTALS:
301
pages read
295 minutes reading
110 minutes blogging
50 blogs visited
1 book finished (The Outsiders)
2 caffeine beverages
3 mini challenges
20 minutes exercise

How you guys doing?? Is time flying for you as well? I'm a little tired but managing.

Decided to take a brief run, so I didn't get as much read this hour and probably won't spend as much time blogging/commenting as usual. What am I listening to? See video below for a little groove time.

Good for you--going running! I should do that, but I don't want to have to take ANOTHER shower. Maybe later tonight...

I missed the hour 7 mini-challenge to take a walk and take a picture. I'm really sad because I like that one a LOT! Oh well.

A little run. Nice. I'm in no shape for running, though! Walking around is about the extent of my exercise. :)

Wendy said...

Looks like you're doing great, Trish! The run should revive you :)

That is a great idea, great job running! :) You are doing such a good job with reading too.

Go Trish!!!

That was my favorite song when I was in elementary school!
As for a run, I think I've eaten too much to move!

A page a minute is fantastic!

Lisa said...

A run!

I walked to the mailbox.

Yes times flying pretty fast for me. I'm bummed that i can't do all 24 hours this time. I'll miss mini-challenges and chances for prizes and extra reading time. Grr.

Great song - brings back memories of family road trips.

Do you listen to music while you read? Haven't decided if that's a distraction, or a distraction from distractions. Does that make sense?

You know what...time is just flying by way too fast...

I got up early to get exercise in today! Good job on the reading.

Becky said...

Wow! I'm actually more impressed that you managed to visit 50 blogs!!! I'm cheering today, but am totally impressed by your blog-visiting superpowers. :) Good luck with your continued reading. Looks like you're having fun!

Lorin said...

You're doing great! I don't know how you manage ot read *and* cheerlead. Cheerleading is harder for me than I thought it would be (I'm trying to visit every blog participating and it takes a lot of time).

Good luck with the rest of the read-a-thon and have fun!

I can't believe how fast the day is going. It's almost 4 pm here. Good for you going on a run. I found going out in the cool air here helped some. I'm just blog hopping now a bit and I'll be back later to check on you.

Have just found your blog - keep up the reading, you're doing great! :) that's one of my fave running songs, too.

Go Trish! I am sure the running has given you a fresh dose of energy! You are doing so great!
