I'll pretend that this is real, 'cause this is what I like best

I went running tonight, and I made 3 miles in 35 minutes. Hooray! There were good and bad differences. The bad first: I lost track of time and went late, right at 7 pm, which meant GIANT SWARMS OF GNATS EVERYWHERE OH GODS GET THEM OFF. It was terrible D: The good: the GIANT BUG SWARMS OF DEATH drove me to improve my pace and run faster! The other bad: running faster where the bugs were threw off my pacing, so that my time at the end of the run was somewhat worse than usual. The other good: running faster where the bugs were, then slower as I got away from them, caused me to push myself harder to still make it home in under 36 minutes, so I feel *extremely* worked out.

Overall, a good experience, but next time I think I will try to recreate the good parts without the incredibly gross gnat mobs :(
