Tuesday, June 27, 2006Last Night I Started My New PlanLast night I went for a run. It wasn't as late as will be the usual. I went out the door around 1030pm because it was a night off from work. I will do the same tonight. Tomorrow will start the later nights with Friday and Saturday being even later (around 1am). It was a great run. I felt good while...

I have the hardest time waking up in the morning. I'm getting 6 - 8 hours of sleep each night. That's nothing to complain about I know. It's what I dreamt about all those days of staying awake for 24 hours...

I didn't run but I did lift weights and I did ride my bike to work and back. Riding back took some extra effort because on the hill coming home, I also had to contend with a good wind blowing against me. My mind is already making a change though because I...

I went running in the morning, lifted weights in the afternoon, and rode my bike to and from work. I'm feeling the effects today. Mostly from the running. I got up this morning to go running and my calves screamed out in protest just walking to my cell phone....

Now, it's a little past 7am and I have been for a run, checked my email, done a little research on protein bars, and given my sermon for the day....

I was so tired when my alarm went off that I wasn't thinking about anything except turning the alarm off. I had a good plan and will finesse it a bit for tomorrow. Last night I set out all my running gear on a dresser so that I wouldn't have to do any...

I don't know that you would say we will be workout partners as of yet but we do talk about it. With us tag-teaming on our son, our schedules are too different for that to work out more than once or...

My wife didn't get home until just in the nick of time for me to get to work by car. I was waiting outside so that when she pulled in the driveway, I could hop in and go. Tag team on the car and the kid. I weighed... Sign in to see full entry.Sunday, June 11, 2006The Weather Turned Nice YesterdayI rode my bicycle to work yesterday. It went better than the last time so I don't think it's going to take very long before it's an easy ride. I was able to keep it in a higher gear riding up the hills than last time. I'm still a bit saddle sore but that will go away with time. I'm going to ride it... Sign in to see full entry.Saturday, June 10, 2006It Didn't Just RainOh no, of course not. As the clouds built, I built my resolve to ride my bike to work anyway. As the time got closer, so did the clouds. I bought a lock a couple weeks ago and I attached the bracket that holds it onto the frame of my bike so I was set to go. 30 minutes before I was to leave, the... Sign in to see full entry. |
