Everything You Didn't Want to Know About My Runs

Finally got around to joining a gym where I can start doing strength training that I need.

Tonight I did an hour on a bike in the cardio cinema while watching Tommy Boy.  It is dark in there, so I couldn't figure out all the controls, but I tried to get my HR into the low 150's while maintaining a cadence of 90.  I did that for an hour.  I think it ended up being something like 17 miles or something.  My biking legs make it impossible for me to get the same kind of workout I can get running, but I need more lower HR workouts anyway. 

Another hour on the bike in the cardio cinema.  The movie tonight was The Nutty Professor.  I guess they like to show fat movies in there.

It used to be that my hamstring problem would go completely away on days I didn't run.  It wasn't going away this week.  It might be because I played a little basketball Tuesday night, but tried not to run too much.  It was pretty sore yesterday.  Not so sore today.  I think I just need to avoid running at all costs.  It also helps to avoid sitting.  Not sure how to do that yet.

Weighed in at 191 this morning. 

Another hour on a stationary bike.  Half-way through, I pushed the effort level up to 14 which got my heart rate just under 160 and into the low 160's.  Ended up with just under 20 miles.

 Hamstring is still a problem, but getting better.
