What's up loggers? It's been about 3.5 to 4 hours since I last ran/logged, but I decided to double today to make up for yesterday. During this run on the Ginste's treadmill I discovered that the key to dreadmilling is to watch a move that you like. I mean a good playlist works too, but watching Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers kept me on the treadmill way longer than I anticipated. I was only trying to go 3 miles, but I got so invested in the movie that over 30 minutes passed until I realized I was at 4.8 miles lol. So then I just finished it off at 5. Oh well, less work to do tomorrow I guess.

But damn the Two Towers is such an amazing 10/10. I definitely wish I could run for 3 hours and watch, but i guess i'll break it up into chunks for the next run. I wonder why i didn't choose to watch Fellowship first? Huh oh well.

One more update that I forgot to include in my last wannabe-compelling log is that I did play Fortnight for the first time. Maginste's little brother took me under his wing and showed me the ropes the other night. I'm absolute trash as expected and didn't get a single kill, however I now do understand the appeal for Fortnight. It's a fun time, I definitely want to keep playing lmao. I guess this is how I get closer to the Ginstes.

Oh and the run was really good, considering I forgot i was running and just watched Lord of the Rings. I even had it on 1.5 elevation and a decent speed, but yeah good movies are the key. And it can't just be any movie, don't watch mediocre or shitty movie. I tried watching Iron Man 3 on my last treadmill run that failed and yeah I wanted to die. So yeah that's the key.... if you have access to a TV. If not i guess you're fucked.

Man this log is getting rambly for a doubling log. I need to get back to studying smh.
