I've been horrible about running. When I say horrible, I mean HORRIBLE. I haven't run since September 18th. Almost a month... yikes! My sister called me yesterday, wanting to know if I'd like to start running with her in the mornings, and I said yes! She'll be here in about half an hour for our inaugural run together.
Reading Progress this Weekend
This weekend I read a decent amount. I'm not sure exactly how much I read on Saturday or Sunday, because I left my book at Allison's parents' house. I still finished Anne of the Island, though, because the text is still on Project Gutenberg. All told, there were 129 pages left in the book. I finished it on Sunday, but I'll go ahead and give all 129 pages to Saturday, seeing as I'm not sure where I left off on Saturday.
On Sunday I also read 42 pages in The Traitor Queen, the last in Trudi Canavan's Traitor Spy trilogy.

The Cover |
So far it's a good book, picking up right where The Rogue left off. Trudi has a way of instantly immersing the reader. Love it.
So, with all the reading I did this weekend, I have read 1,531 pages, still have 4,862 left in my challenge, with 78 days left to do it in. I must read an average of 63 (62.333) pages per day in order to finish before the end of the year. That shouldn't be too much of a problem.
