5 days

Yea I forgot to write a post last night. I didn't eat anything good yesterday, just junk food until diiner, but I went running before dinner. I only did that two mile loop, I did a lot of stretching before hand so my legs felt great during the run I just had no energy. I just gotta not be stupid today and actually eat meals before I go running. I should start with breakfast but it's already 9:30 and I have work to do but we'll see.

2 miles, I didn't bring a watch on purpose.

So I've been gone from the blog 10 days I think from what double J has told me. The main reason is laziness I suppose but the rationalized excuse I made up for myself was, I normally thought to blog when I looked at the recent sites when I click the down arrow and I cleared that out and apparently never came back on here because I didn't see the address to remind me. Anyway I've been running, but not everyday but just doing the 2 mile loop, I did extra one of the days, but my knee is still giving me some pain. I'm gona have to make a trip to whirl a way and get some new shoes. I really thought these shoes were fine I didn't wear them much they were just in my trunk the past few months. Anyway I did do some Yoga last Wedensday it's power vinyasa yoga. It was actually a great workout, and I had to take a few breaks cuz obviously I'm not in very good shape if you've ready any other posts. Anyway lets see if I can get this going again. I should try going back to trying to run every day just 2 miles at least and then start mixing some longer runs in there.

Yea I didn't blog yesterday, I took the day off cuz I had some knee pain again, which normally happens once it starts it continues for a few days on the new shoes so I wasn't too worried about it. I just wanted to go for a short run today since it still hurt a little and I still had work to do after my run. I did that loop I've been doing thats just under 2 miles but today I ran it in 14:26 so much faster than I had been. I guess thats a good sign, I was laboring a bit but I figured it was from the snow on the ground and not getting good traction. I gotta be happy with it I suppose, even though I'm still not going far on the runs, it's good to know the pace is getting quicker with relativly no change in effort. I'll just have to start slowing it down a bit to get longer runs in. Tomorrow I think I'll do a 10 minute slow warm up, some drills, and then a 15 minute warm down, so we'll see how that goes.

2 miles almost 14:26

I still hate the giants

Well I haven't blogged in a few days, part of which was the bike sucks and I didn't do anything Sunday or Monday. I was only doing 15 minutes on the bike the other days. Today I finally remembered that I had an extra pair of running shoes in my car since I still haven't gone to whirlaway to get a new pair. I don't think there are many miles on these shoes either so thats a plus. I started the run not sure how far I'd go but I wanted to go further than that standard 15 minute loop. I ended up doing 33:47 so that was probably 4 miles I'm guessing maybe a little longer, if I'm bored later I'll map it out. I felt good for the most part, but there was a couple parts where I felt my achilles twinge once for each foot. That made me a little nervous but there there was no pain or tightness after so I am thinking it might have been in my head. Good run though, now I'm really hungry so I'm going to go find some food.

33:47 4.? miles

My shoes are cooked I'm pretty sure because I've been having some knee pain that normally happens when I need new shoes. I decided instead of pushing my knee I figured I would bike instead. I got 30 minutes in, slowing increasing the resistance after the first 10 minutes until the last 5 minutes then i dialed it down a little. not quite a workout just a good session. My legs felt good during it, stronger than I feel when I run but maybe it's just the different exercise.

30 minutes, I forget how far it was I think 6 and change, nothing to be happy about really.
