One thing I forgot to mention earlier is that I did go for the run about 4pm. I think I did about 2km, which was not bad since I had not been running for a couple of weeks, and given the weather. It was a bit warm and a bit humid… After I do a few more runs I am sure that I can do a bit better… I hope. Running just takes, um, persistence. That is you just need to keep at it. I think I need to also start on sit-ups and pushups again.

I think my HDD is about as defragged as microsoft can make it. But there were a few files that could not be defragmented. Mostly the System Page File which is about 1 GByte in size. So I did a search of the net and found a program on SysInternals that contains a program that will defrag the files on bootup. This makes things run generally faster, and the software is free which is even better.

There are probably some other things that I can do to speed up the system, but I think this is enough at the moment. Right now I have some work that I MUST get done. Ciao.
