Work,Work,Work....

Working towards that goal is hard. I took 3 days off and what a difference.Yesterday was awesome.Added a couple of blocks to my route and even with that it only took me 36 minutes.Today same route but it took 40 minutes,so go figure.Anyway felt really slow and rusty today but still went out and put in the miles.Not going to stop- ever !! I figure that I took enough time off getting out of shape that I can not stop again -EVER !I feel good though and the program seems to be working for me so I am going to follow this through and see what happens.Hopefully tomorrow will be as good or even better than today.

It's A Beautiful Day....

What A great workout today !Just got back from a great 40 minute workout session and it
went well.I never felt better and I did a little more than my usual route and ran a bit further today as I just had 2 days off. What a difference a couple of days rest will do for your total workout. I really feel good !! Just hope that I can get another wo in tomorrow .Let's keep this ball rolling..

What A Week !!!!

It has been a great time since my last entry.I have begun my "2 a days" .Still not getting up in the am to work out but I do make time after work and later in the evening ( ah the city of Orange at midnight .....)It's been great and I can feel some progress being made.I have increased my running and my back feels great and I am now logging the necessary mileage.Everything is beginning to fall into place now I just can not become complacent in my training ritual....

Another Great Day For Training !!!!

Went to Hart Park again after work and turned in a great workout ! Perfect setting ( trail) and the weather was great and it was the perfect thing to do after a hard work day .It is great to get out and just wander around in my head while I am out running kind of "clearing my mind". I plan on getting up early again tomorrow to work out so that I can just get off work and relax and get my weekend off to a great start. Hope that I can get out of bed tomorrow on time.

What A Great Morning !!

I did it ! I finally got up early enough to train in the morning and what a lovely morning it was ! Hardly any traffic and far less people to deal with ! It was great and I knocked a few seconds off my usual route ( actually it was 7 minutes!). anyway. it was perfect and I really felt good. I am going to try this for the next few days and then it is on with the "2 a days". I do wonder though, why does it take for ever to get through the work day and the precious few minutes that I get to myself pass so quickly??

Walking On The Sun....

What A Day !!! Got off work a little early and went to Hart Park and used the trail to train and it was fabulous!! I worked hard and gutted this work out out and it felt great.I feel so good and alive that I am planning on getting up early tomorrow morning and hitting it.I just hope that I can get out of bed. That seems to be the hardest part for me.Have to start doing that as I am got to switch to "2 a days" next week. Hope I can get out of bed.....

How Time Flies.....

Here it is July already and I still have not gotten it together enough but I have not quit!! I have begun a "new" training of sorts and it seems to be working good so far. I found a triathlon training and kind of "adapted" to my schedule and it seems to be working. Last week was my first week with the new program and it started off good !! This week I have begun the "meat" of the program and yesterday was my first day and it went well.I will let you know how today's training went later.It is off to the salt mines for me...
