Cheer up sleepy Burt-een
Oh what can it mean
To a marathon dreamer
And a homecoming queen...
This morning I had the pleasure of running with another fellow blogger. We met in the parking lot of Pei Wei's and ran down Baseline to the Consolidated Canal. Then we ran north and were going to just go until we felt like it was time to turn around. But we got so close to my house that I said, "Hey, let's go to my house." So we went and got some ice cold water. Only my sister was awake. The house, of course, was a mess. I hope she forgives me. We had a great conversation, and now we know everything about each other. We're best friends. We even brushed and braided each other's hair.
Remember what I said about nipular bleeding only occuring after 8 miles? Well, that's when I'm running regularly. I sprung a couple of "leaks" this morning. I was so embarrassed that I had to take my shirt off, which of course made me even more embarrassed. Hey, I'm serious. There is nothing pleasing to the eye about a fat, pale white, hairy, shirtless guy. Just ask MD. Anyway, I say it's time for a local FRB run this Saturday. Who's in? James? Lybi? Camille? AZDesertMonsoon? RunnerJeffAZ? Uh, Bonnie? (Flagstaff isn't too far away, or for that matter Lake Havasu City.) Rhett?
The left side of this picture looks really good. The guy on the right side has a ginormous head! Look at that thing. It's like an orange on a toothpick! It's a virtual planetoid! It has it's own weather system! I'm not kidding, that boy's head is like Sputnik; spherical but quite pointy at parts! He'll be crying himself to sleep tonight, on his huge pillow.
Splits - 9:42, 9:39, 9:48, 9:34, 9:21

Day 17 P90X - Arms and Shoulders/Ab Ripper X
My back is killing me. I usually feel better after doing this workout. Something about the resistance bands seems to work the muscles in the opposite direction, and they just seem to recover. We'll see if it helps my back. |
