I set two personal bests in one run tonight. What are you up to?

only 14 miles but the gf and i are thinking bigger for next year.
I found some freeware mixing software called Mixxx off of createdigitalmusic.com that I've been playing around with.
I'm going to try to write 9 lines of code in one hour, beating my last record of 8.
So far, I have
for(int i = (int)(pLCMEdge != NULL);i < multyplicity; i++)
{
pEdge = LinkedEdges[i];
pSite = LinkedSites[i];
_CV_INITIALIZE_CVLCMDATA(&LCMOutputData,CV_TWIN_VORONOISITE2D(pSite,pEdge),pEdge,pNode);
pLCMEdge = _cvConstructLCMEdge(pLCM,&LCMOutputData);
_cvAttachLCMEdgeToLCMNode(pLCMNode,pLCMEdge,pLCMEdge_prev,0,0);
}
Right now I am procrastinating instead of cleaning my flat. Later some friends are coming over to play board games.
I'm eating ice cream and playing "time management" games. Yeah, they don't sound very fun but they are.
@Jay Def: I notice Mixxx has drivers for a couple of the USB MIDI DJ Mixers I'm looking at buying.
What do you think so far?
It's interesting. The automatic BPM detector is kinda unreliable, but then most of them are.
I'm torn, Jay.
Sunshine Jones recommends the Vestax VCM-100, but the more I look at it, the more I'm digging that Hercules RMX DJ Console.

I was gawking at the mk2, the little guy:

RMX is $350. mk2 is $250. VCI/VCM-100 are both $499. With the VCI, I'd have to get a sound card. the vcm and the Hercules have sound cards and Mic inputs built in.
(Also, I have a preliminary Digeum intro.)
That's cool. I like that MK2 and it's well within my price-range. I will probably have one before this month is out. :)
I am really liking the RMX. It's bigger and has more features. Having gawked at the Virtual DJ software, I'm pretty sure, with a $99 price tag, I'll be stepping into Traktor.
I wonder if the Guitar Center here in Boise has either of them. I'd like to get some hands-on on them.
One of the reasons I'm considering the MK2, is space. But I'd really like to see how much of a difference it is. I may have to call GC tomorrow and see if they have a demo unit. (My guess is that they don't, honestly.)
I saw either the Mk2 or the original Console at GC here in San Jose.

My run: 13 laps (3.25 miles or 5230 m, whichever you like)
2 mile run. Was 14:44.47. At lap 8, my split time reads, 14:37.62. That's a personal best by 6 seconds.
5 km run (I always complete lap 13): Was 25:23.16. I finished in 24:17.15. That's a personal best by 66 seconds. Not bad for having taken 3 rest days in a row.
