RHR 54.

1 mile warmup with the dog this morning.  20 second workout segment.  More after work.

2 mile speed walking at lunch.

4 miles running in the evening.  The last mile my ankle started bothering me on uphills, so I walked the two uphills.  Did my Card Deck workout while watching Biggest Loser.

I've heard about the card deck workout. Tell me all the specifics. It sounds kinda fun, but a good challenge at the same time.
