Treadmill Goals (for now):
- Get on the treadmill (or equivalent exercise) daily
- Pace is fine at 30 min/mile, although I may up it on occasion
- Time range between 30 minutes and 1 hour per day
- Distance 1-2 miles per day
- Read the chosen book, which I won’t allow myself to read outside of my treadmill time, hopefully motivating me to reach or exceed the above goals

I cut myself off after the bare minimum today because I was at a good stopping place in the story. The drama is starting to unfold, and Whyborne is about to visit the mine with Elliot.
Current book: Whyborne and Griffin Book 2 – Threshold – by Jordan L. Hawk
My favorite lines from today’s reading:
- Now they both looked at me pityingly. Apparently, I once again demonstrated I had no idea how the world actually worked. – I think prefer Whyborne’s naive vision of the world to reality.
- The other two, however, I knew all too well. They were the thieves who had attacked me in Widdershins and stolen the black stone. – Ah, the plot thickens.
- If I’d known this was whom I was no doubt being compared to, I would have insisted on making love only in the dark. Or never worked up the courage to take off my clothes in the first place. – Good thing Whyborne didn’t know in advance!

Great job!!
“Pityingly” is a terrible word, btw. It pokes me in the eye! I haven’t read the book and maybe it fits the voice of the narrator, but taken out of context like that it makes me want to break out my big red pen! 😀
LOL. I didn’t have that same reaction to it. Does it help that the book is in a historical setting?
Congratulations!!! You’re doing incredible in your exercise. Well Done!!
I loved every one of these books. I just finished reading the entire series only a couple of months ago and you’re making me want to re-read them again!! Hope you enjoy it. Jordan is a wonderful story teller!!
Thank you! I’m certainly enjoying the story so far. Yes, she certainly is!!
