    7/3 - 1.5 miles at 8.9mph.
    7/5 - 2.6 miles at 9.9mph.
    7/7 - 0.8 miles slowly.
    7/9 - 3.0 miles at 10.2mph listening to Cheap Trick on the Walkman (external speakers - not earbuds).
    7/12 - 3.0 miles at 10.6mph listening to the Go-Gos.
    7/14 - 1.0 miles at 8mph.
    7/16 - 2.8 miles at 10.5mph.
    7/19 - 5.5 miles at 10.0mph listening to The Mavericks. Pretty sad that I'm excited to be on pace to get 30 miles for the month, but it's been a sickly month. And I AM excited to be on pace to get to 30 miles this month.
    7/20 - 2.0 miles at 7.5mph listening to the newest Black Keys album.
    7/21 - 5.0 miles at 11.1mph listening to Skillet. Felt pretty good today. And I managed to out-ride a tiny dog that was trying to bite my ankles. He almost got me.


    MTD = 25.2 miles.
    Goal = 30 miles.
    Still need = 4.8 miles.
