Wednesday, July 12, 2006Catching up from last night's postWe spent the whole day out of town yesterday waking up early and getting home late. I'll post about the day in my journal blog. I got up early so that I could lift weights before we left. I have really been enjoying the weightlifting. I have been getting stronger over the last couple of weeks. The...

I was reading my Runner's World magazine today and I have to tell you that 3 milers sound pathetic compared to what these people do. These are some serious runners. It's a major...

Later in the afternoon, I ended up walking to work because my bicycle had a flat tire. When I got home, I went out for my run. That has to be good. I lifted weights yesterday too. Today, I'm tired for some reason. I think I'll end up taking a nap when...

I wouldn't say that I charged up it but in my mind, it felt good. I went for the whole three miles with no thoughts of giving up. I want to get to a point where almost every run feels like that and I'm...

We had friends over Monday night and Tuesday night and now it's Wednesday night and I am just not in the mood to go out the door. I'm tired and my ankle hurts. I'm not sure what I can do about my ankle. It has been hurting a lot... Sign in to see full entry.Sunday, July 2, 2006One more day for a complete weekTrey and I went for our walk today. I lifted weights this afternoon. When I got home tonight at 1:30am, I went out for my run and went the full three miles. I tried the belly breathing for my side ache and it worked nicely. As I get into better shape, I shouldn't have to worry about it but it's nice... Sign in to see full entry.Saturday, July 1, 20065 days in a rowThat's got to be a record for me lately. I have lifted weights for 5 days in a row and went running 5 days in a row. I kept it to a mile and a half again tonight. I have been getting side aches for the last 3 nights while running. Nothing too serious but annoying. I read a little bit tonight about...

I cut the run in half again tonight even though I was feeling much better than last night. There is a lightning storm moving in tonight. I could see that the lightning was hitting the ground so I thought it might be safer to call it quits when...

I sprained it several years ago and it never healed up right. When I say that "I" sprained it, let me correct that by saying that my lead karate student sprained my ankle one night while we were sparring. It has never...

I was so happy about my run yesterday that I didn't fill you in on the rest of the good news and a bit of a set back. The set back was that I gained a pound. I'm telling you...
