New Challenge: 300 kilometers in 30 days

There's no better time to be running in Korea than during fall. The weather is cool, and the leaves are changing into other-colored leaves.

My next challenge is to run a total of 300 km within 30 days. It's the same as a 10 km (about 6 miles) run every day. Impressed with my division yet? Just wait.

But instead of running every day, weekly I'm going to do 5 days of 10 km runs, 1 day off, and then a 20 km run.

Yesterday I ran around beautiful Bupyeong Park. It has a course that's exactly 1260 meters long, so 8 times around makes a perfect 10 km run. Counting to eight very slowly while running around in a circle is surprisingly challenging for me, so I used my fingers to keep track.

There was a lot of math in this post. It's making my head hurt a little bit.
