Even when I hit my time if I'm like .15 away from getting an even amount of miles (OCD...) I keep going for that extra minute. And I love the reward system.

When I look at my Garmin and see that we've gone 1.9 and we only need 2.73, it's a lot easier to just add on another street or two instead of turning to get home. (Except today when my quads were burning from trudging through the snow and I saw that we'd make an even 2 by the time we got home if we turned around then--but that was also after adding on two extra streets so that we'd make it over 1.5)<br /><br />The reward system is great--I tell my students to use that when they're writing papers: "If I write x pages, I can watch tv/eat ice cream/play videogames/check Facebook." It works.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03497873574218444965noreply@blogger.com
