I read an article about a woman who, to motivate herself in training for a marathon, paid herself $1 per mile she trained. Then after the marathon she went on a shopping trip. Not a bad idea. I made $14 dollars on Saturday! Look out Pentagon City Mall, I'll be spending some big bucks soon! If I stay on track with my training, counting from last Saturday through the marathon I will have a total of $169 to spend after October 26 (+$26.20 since naturally I should add the marathon milage).
One problem with this plan is my hourly wage. It took me about 2 hours and 20 mins to run 14 miles. This means I made about $6.36/hr. Minimum wage is currently $6.55. This is not ideal. So either I need to pick up my pace to at least be on track with minimum wage or find another way to increase my spending power at Pentagon City Mall. Hmmm, maybe I should stick with Real Estate for my income and just run for the joy of it.
