Today was a low workout day. AKA rest day.
Not much to report but I did try to run 1 lap. I am not sure if the shoes is the problem, I think it may be the insoles.
Anyway, we’ll see over the next 3 days.
While I was running I did feel like a needed more “road” time rather than treadmill time.
Weight: 251.0
My foot and legs held up today as I ran 4 miles on the treadmill but I think my endurance took a shot.
I was able to score 941 calories on the treadmill and I believe another 163 on the elliptical.
Note that my weight is returning to normal. I look forward to tomorrow’s rest day.

The situation is bad, I really wanted to get shoes that were right for my feet. Unfortunately I do not have enough time to go to Bonnie Lake.
So settled on a cheaper pair of shoes that was less than $35. Hopefully it will be enough time to last till the 5K or if needed after that. For sure I want to get a good pair for the Marathon.
Today’s workout was not too bad, mostly because it was mostly anaerobic. This weekend will be telling.

I started my run today at lunch thinking I could make it a 5K. After the first mile though my legs were shot. I was running a erally good pace too so it did not feel like an endurance issue.
But I know this is about that time to replace my shoes. I may go for a cheaper brand then get a good brand a week before the 5K which will give me time to break the good pair in time for the 1/2 marathon.

We got back from Linuxfest today, boy was it fun but there is a cost associated with it.
When I drive long distances I tend to snack, also, when we are out like this for several days, my diet changes. You can say I “Let myself go”
Anyway, it was fun and I tried to run today. It was an untimed run in that I did not have my watch (another byproduct of being off my game for the past 49 hours) but I did have my phone. After a couple hundred yards I noted the time at 6:45PM after two laps and passing that same point again it was 7:11, so I am sure I ran it in less than 30 minutes but I do not have a clue at what point in the minute my run started and ended since there is no second counter. So I could be off as much as 118 seconds.
It was an OK run.
My weight kind of betrays the amount I pigged out during the past two days.

Well, I am at Linuxfest, and my workout has been altered.
I normally run a 4+ today but I did some pushups and situps.
But I also did some workout in the pool. Also dunked my self in the Jacuzzi.
I feel tired like I did run a 4+, I wish I had a pool at home to do laps.
Maybe when I’m rich 🙂
No weigh in.
Not sure why but I am feeling a little weak today. I have not been breathing right.
I tried my best to work out in the gym, also there were a lot of people in there today. They were nice enough, just made me a little more shy.
Also my schedule has been altered due to Linuxfest. Tomorrow will be a relatively light workout. I need to rest too heal, my shoulder hurts a bit.
But tonight, the pool tomorrow too.

Also this is Earth Day 2010, the 40th anniversary.
I was supposed to take the bus (going green) this morning but my oldest son wanted to go to work with me. So I drove in and could not abandon my son to hit the gym. This threw off my workout schedule so I will need to make it up.
Anyway, in a normal week today is supposed to be a low workout day. I did walk a lap and run a lap.
I needed the break physically cause I could feel it in my body.
Weight: 251.0
So I mentioned that I needed to do a longer run. I tried it out today and boy did it push me.
Wednesdays are my 1000 calorie gym days. It is where I use the aerobic machines to accumulate 1000 calories of burn. I normally add variety and do two or 3 machines.
Today I did it all on the treadmill. One hour run with a five minute cool down. It was awesome. Afterwards though I was beat and pretty dehydrated. Took the rest of the day to get my water back into my cells.
Yes that is 5.39 mile of running in 65 minutes. Also I was at a 4 incline and at least 5MPH going high as 5.2
I did weigh myself in the gym and it did show 245.0 But alas it was not official.
Weight: 249.8
A morning run really gets you going, I started a run this morning and I struggled through the first lap telling myself just one.
Then I got going and really felt like doing another.
Unfortunately I did not sleep early and felt the effects later on during the day.
Before I did my evening gym workout I had to close my eyes for a few minutes.
I made it through my gym workout (amazing how much I can bench now) and when I got home, quickly passed out after dinner.
Tomorrow is a 1000 cal workout so I need to catch the first bus out, so I may not be getting the sleep I need again.
Weigh in was done under official conditions, after AM workout and morning bathroom, before breakfast. I really think this is my true weight.
Weight: 249.4
