The “temp” roof, as seen from my box.

C25K - W1D3

I have to admit, I’ve not yet completed my W1D3 workout - with all the travel i’ve been doing, I haven’t made the time to do the running - Sooo - i’m going to be doing that tonight. And might even start the next week just to stay on track in my training.

I know, I know - I haven’t been hardcore enough - but with all that’s going on - I can only do what I can do…

In other news, by this time next week, I should have enough travel on my rapid rewards card to get a free ticket to somewhere… heh. Hopefully I’ll have some better idea of the real happening…

In yet another bit of news, they finally finished the roof in our office - smells like fresh wood. I’ll take a pic later and post it - it isn’t exactly a “finished” look…

Be blessed.

So, some genius decided to remove our atrium glass and leave the roof open - umm - a cold front blew in last night so I’m sitting in an office that is about 38°F - shivering and wondering what the heck they were thinking…

I am dumbfounded. I don’t understand it - not one bit.

2nd Annual PNR United Way Putt-Putt Championship - October 22, 2008

So every year 2 co-workers and I end up producing a 9 hole putt-putt course to raise money for United Way. Today was the day - we stayed up here till about 9pm last night putting all the holes together - and printing off all of the graphics and whatnot…

Turns out, people really love it. All day we’ve had teams of 2 going off the tee’s and I’m telling you, all of the giggling and whatnot is amazing. I didn’t realize how much people really liked it. We have received tons of thank yous from everyone… At the day’s end, we raised right at $700 towards United Way. We had a great time doing it as well…

I’ll post pictures when they become available.

C25K - W1D2

for starters, lets define that title.

C25K = Couch to 5k meter run.

W1D2 = Week One, Day Two.

Having defined that - Last night I ran my 2nd day of running. Again, I felt great after I got going and when I finished. My calves were pretty much cramping up on me immediately, and my left foot was hurting, but that’s to be expected when I’m just now coming back into the running thing. All in all, I had a great experience.

The podcast really makes it easy and I don’t have to worry about the timing, and the music included is pretty high intensity techno type music - I like it, but I wouldn’t mind creating my own tracts to run to… that way I could change it up a little bit more and add my own flava to it.

I felt great afterward and again wanted to do more, but I held back my will so I could ensure I wouldn’t get burnt out - I really want to make this a great thing for exercise and health, and I don’t want to over do it and give myself a reason to back out of it. I’m actually really looking foward to next week where the running will be a little more intense… as of right now, i’m actually only running about 7 to 8 minutes - the rest of it is briskly walking.

I like how the program eases you into it, and leaves you wanting more. Anyway, that’s all for this workout - more to follow. Have a blessed day.
