I finally managed to drag my weary bones out of bed at 4:15 this morning for a morning run. Although, while sipping my coffee, I looked out the window and noticed several inches of snow on the ground and still coming down pretty hard. A wave of wimpy overtook me and I chose to skip the roads and head to the gym...
Did a slow mile warm-up followed by eight miles in 58:15 on the treadmill. While running, I was treated to about six televisions tuned to "Fox and Friends". Such a treat! From it I learned that since Nancy Pelosi has been Speaker of the House that the national debt has increased by $ 4, 576,000,000,000,001. I had no idea she was that bad! Here I thought the deficit/debt was a result of fighting two wars along with simultaneous tax cuts, and an unwillingness of both parties to make hard choices. But nope, just Pelosi.
My weight was 144 after the run this morning. I'm wondering if I could get down to 138 or so with a little more dietary discipline? I give myself a solid B right now when it comes to diet and nutrition, but there is room for improvement. Not willing to give up beer though...
pm: two miles on the treadmill plus a mighty hard strength workout.
