Ran 6 miles yesterday in 1:15 with the dog so that included the stops and short walk to through his poop in the trash can.  I'm not jogging with sh$t in my hand.  Stretched before and after.  I'm getting some achelles tendinitous I think.  Both are sore and ache a little.  Kind of sucks but being so heavy right now can't be good for them.

But anyway, going to sign up in a marathon in May to do something different so going to quit lifting heavy and drinking.  Hopefully my tendons feel better.  I'm stretching like crazy but just going to work through it until it becomes painful.  I wouldn't descibe it as pain, just annoying.

Went for my first run in 2 months, finally I think my knee is healed (after multiple physio sessions). Ran 3.5km at 6 min/km. Not too bad although I have been keeping my fitness up with plenty of mountain biking. Doing a 15km run end of next month (with an 700m vertical climb) so got my work cut out for that.

Couch to 5K, repeating Week 5, Day 1. It's changed since 10 days ago when I last ran, and the app is now named "Run 5K" or something. I don't know why, or why the program changed (last time it was three 5:00 runs with 3:00 between. This time it was 5:00, 7:00, 5:00 with 2:00 between).

Anyway, my calf feels okay. I ran the out part in slush and then turned around because right around the yellow bike rental the path became snowy and slushy. A good chunk of my run was through that. I've estimated the distance as well (hence the snap to roads) because the RunKeeper app had me running 27 miles all around Erie. I estimate that my pace was in the low to mid-9:00.

I have a 610 with the HRM. I'm going to wait to use that until I'm not doing so many weird intervals. I'll use that when I'm just out running for x minutes at a time, or something.

Wore the Kinvara 2s today. Felt great. Toes got a bit cold when I was squishing slush (mostly onto my left foot - which indicates I run slightly differently). They're stuffed with newspaper currently.

Did spinning class and a little heavy lifting today.  Did 4 excercises for my back.  Two variations of pull downs, bent over dumb bell rows, and flys.  Time was limited becuase of spinning class.  Got a good workout.

Week 5 Day 2 of the new (revised) Run 5K (formerly C25K) app.

I started the timer when I had a little walking (warmup) left and stopped it as I walked home. The runs were 5:00, 8:00, and 2:00 with 2:00 between them, so that's 15:00 running and 5:40 walking.

I'm still cautious about my left calf. So I thought I ran a bit more slowly - honestly I thought I was shooting for 10:00 run segments - then I check the RunKeeper app on my phone and it shows that I'd gone 2.03 miles in less than 21 minutes, so that's barely 10:00 including the 5:40 walking!

I felt fine the whole time, too. Calf was noticeably "not 100%" but it's mild discomfort at best. I'm icing it as a preventative measure more than anything else.

Was 60 degrees outside! Blue skies, windy as heck (it felt into the wind most of the time too)! I've checked the RunKeeper mapping a few times, it's accurate. I averaged running speeds of about 8:30, 9:15, and 8:00. The 9:15 includes running in place waiting for traffic, too.

3 miles at10:40 pace, no walking, 2 min break at 2 miles.

[Leftygolfer]

Lifted last night.  Did chest and Tris.  Then tons of streches and ab stuff.  I've got some shoulder problems so I can't do much with my chest.  I do flat bench with my elbows really close to my body, close grip DB flat bench, decline, and then a whole bunch of tri stuff.  Overall, I'm happy with my strength gains in the past two months.  I can see and feel the changes.
