Off the Treadmill

Meg encouraged me to run before my regular midnight/1am start time. So I did. And it felt great. Yes, running on a treadmill has its perks with watching tv/movies. But it felt so good to run outside again. It was nice that my speed wasn't governed by the treadmill setting. Since it's depressing to run through my neighborhood, I get out of the neighborhood with the shortest route possible and to a majority of my workout in Bexley. That neighborhood gives me something to shoot for, for my family.
OK, the stats: 3.24 miles in 36mins 32 secs. Nowhere near my sub-20min 5k. But, I'm going, and it feels good.

Oy...Another Night Run

Ran on the treadmill again. This time I left off with Lorainne getting the hots for Marty. So, Marty's gotta hook her up with George, so that he doesn't disappear from existence. I love that movie...all of them!
2 miles in 22:50. It's a little faster than usual, hence the old, shorter distance.

Bumping It Up

OK, so I knew I wanted to start upping my mileage soon. I've only been at this for like three weeks and haven't been running every day. But having been a runner in the past, 2 miles isn't all that much. So, I tried to shoot for 3 miles today, but settled for 2.5. I finished watching Hellboy too, and the movie was about over. Running on the treadmill gets old too. So, we'll see what happens when I head outside in the next few days. I feel good.

Missed Day

So, last week wasn't too great. I didn't run every other day, in an effort to care for my ankle.

A quick aside here: I've had surgery on both feet, and unfortunately my ankles suffered a lot. So, I'm trying to care for them, while doing this, especially because I'm 30-40 lbs heavier than when I was last regularly active.

I missed yesterday, because I was sleeping. I had to get up at 4 this morning, because I'm going to Akron for work.
I'll make up for that today. I think I may attempt 3 miles today. I'm feeling good about it.

Quick Update

Ran 2 miles on the treadmill, while watching Hellboy. Man, my ankle hurt afterwards. But was better after I walked when I was done.

Chris will have a website up for me in the future. He's already secured a domain. I love that guy.

Google is Inept

Google still hasn't given me back my blog. This will take it's place. More to come...
