Walk 11 On the Treadmill (South Carolina)
Before: I went too early and the gym door was locked. On the way there I reveled in the light and in the clean air. Not clear. The fog had just lifted. Then I walked down a road lined with magnolias, huge shining trees and up a hill where a man smiled at me and said "I bet you're lookin' for a Krispy Kreme right about now". And there it was...right at the top of the hill. But I kept walking.
During: I'm not keen about walking on the treadmill but I figured it would add some variety to the workout routine. I walked for about 10 minutes at a fastish pace. I sweated slightly and then switched to the elliptical which is slightly more interesting.
After: Back to the work of the mind. That makes me sweat too!

I walked back and forth past the KK at least 4 times a day during my 5 days in South Carolina. There were actually 2 Krispy Kreme outlets across the road from one another - one had the big sign but was abandoned, the other had a smaller sign but was thriving with a drive thru etc. I went in once. It was a very retro cool place. It smelled like grease and they had many varieties of doughnuts and a lot of KK souvenirs. I thought fleetingly of buying one but then didn't really see the point. The servers seemed perplexed that I didn't buy any doughnuts, just a large coffee.
"...most surely reached by walking right past the krispy kreme store."
the name krispy kreme is an onomatopoeia, i feel like i'm ingesting a textured fat bun when i say or think 'krispy kreme' - Kkkksssp KKmmm. Crackling.
I saw an oprah show where she gave everyone in her audience a box with two of those things in it and everyone ate them. Barf-o-pra- mah!
