I got on a good roll last week and was posting regularly. Last Thursday I did Yoga with the office. It is always great to be the only dude around a lot of great women. I am finding that I am looking forward to Thursdays!
Took Friday off to let my body rest for Saturday. Did 10 miles with the Runnin for Rhett group. It was going really well for me, not so great for my running partner. His last 2 miles was really tough; I am hoping that he is going to be able to muster the strength to get through the whole 13.1 miles. I’m looking forward to this Saturday, we are pushing it out to 11 miles…I hope that it is raining like last weekend, makes it interesting in a very different way.
I took Sunday off only because immediately after the run on Saturday we headed up to Carson City to celebrate my daughters birthday with family and spent the night, getting back down Sunday only to head to another one of her friends birthday parties and get ready for the new week.
Did drop 6 pounds last week. So with the 3 pounds I put on the week before, I am now down sitting right at the 295 mark. Thinking that because all I can have is liquid right now, I will drop another 5 or so by next Monday…
Last, I have had an extended vacation from my runs and workouts. I had a wisdom tooth taken out on Monday (wasn’t something that I had planned, otherwise I would have made sure I got in mileage on Sunday and Monday morning) and had to chill out for a couple of days. So tonight I will ‘Walk’ 4 miles on the treadmill. Tomorrow I will be able to go back to a regular day, so I will be skipping the Yoga for a 6-7 mile run/walk.
I was quite surprised yesterday. On Monday I felt fine after the dental work. Got home, hung out on the couch. Yesterday, I was so out of it…it was weird. I wasn’t on any pain medication or anything. I guess that I have been feeling so great that having the tooth out and the Novocaine was enough to ‘jack’ me for the day. Glad it is over with!
