Training Totals 1/10/2010
RECAP: Well then, my first full week of working out of 2010, and it went basically as planned. I didn’t make it to the gym everyday, but I did work out everyday for at least twenty minutes, and really, it wasn’t all that hard. Here are the numbers. Summary Work out streak: 10 days; (355…

Fitness goals for the year
They say you should set outlandish goals for yourself, that will power isn’t what we think it is and that small manageable changes are a better bet than big insane goals. Well, whatever, I like insane goals, and here they are: 1. Work out every day of the year for at least twenty minutes. 2.…

On not meeting goals.

On the road again…
Today was finally the day when I was able to get back on the road. I did three miles in slower than molasses time of 28:55. I’d be lying if I said it didn’t feel pretty awful, a lot of weird aches and pains in my hip, in my shin and a little in the…

Training Totals
Are a big fat zero. I didn’t run at all last week and, after the doctors appointment today, it appears that I will not be running for another week. Have I mentioned that I hate this? Upside – I got a cortizone shot in my foot today which made me feel like a pro football…
