Affair of the heart?

Saturday, February 10th, 2007

I did weights again today, or at least started to.  I had moved up to two sets for each exercise last week and wanted to continue it this week.  The weight has been going up, which was encouraging.  But an old evilness has crept back in and this time it made me scared.
I mentioned before [...]

crunch crunch

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor.
Place you right hand on your right kneecap.
Now straighten your right leg.
What did you feel?  Was it just the smooth motion of muscle, bone and ligaments?  Mine doesn’t feel like that.  It goes crunch crunch.  Like you have a bundle of celery that you are [...]

I’m not running tonight

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

I have 3 miles on the schedule but I’m not going.  My calves are killing me.  And not the soreness you get from too much workout, but a sharp stabbing pain that radiates around and forward to my shins.  It hurts to walk, it hurts to walk down stairs.  I think that if I want [...]

Heh, heh. Sorry, Pam. :)

That classic Pam conversation was just too good not to post. I will ofcourse gladly remove it if you want. :)
I ran 7 miles today, and 5 yesterday. Yesterday felt very good and this morning was dreadful. My legs we like lead, my right knee had that weak wobbly feeling, and [...]

Taper time

Sunday, March 12th, 2006

I ran my 16 miles yesterday and I’m damn happy to have it done. The muscle/tendon/psoas/quadricep thing on my leg was killing me. Although, this time it didn’t start to hurt until much farther into the run. Maybe 6 miles. Afterwards I could hardly walk. Although, a short rest in [...]

Its not enough

One step farthur.

Hello?

Sunday, February 26th, 2006

Its been a while. Egads, I’m starting to sound like those bloggers that fade away into nothingness. That was my fear actually. I’d finally do the marathon and then just fall apart after that. Well I’m not! Dammit. Maybe. No! I’m not!
I ran my 10 miles yesterday [...]

Just quickly

Tuesday, February 14th, 2006

I ran sunday instead of Saturday because I was meeting with friends from out of town.
12 miles in the woods on Sunday. Ow. My legs are killing me from running in the snow. My right calf is really sore. I hope its not too bad for my 3 tonight.
Very busy lately. [...]

I found it!

Sunday, February 5th, 2006

Remember when I lost my jump drive a few months back? Well our dryer stopped working tonight and when I crawled down on the floor to start taking it apart, guess what I found under the edge of the washer.

My secrets are safe once again. :) Wierd thing is that [...]
