Captains Log 05142013

Happy Tuesday yall..I awoke with a pep in my step at 0530 and got out the door around 0700 for a short run through the neighborhood.  It was 20 minutes long with no breaks other than the occasional street crossing where I had to wait my turn for a few seconds.  I felt really good about it and decided to just be proud of running for 20 minutes without walking.  I was excited as I plotted my course and was stunned to find I had made it 2 miles in those 20 minutes.  HOLY Sh17!!!  I ran a consistent 6 mph for 20 minutes up hills down hills around houses and cars...  This is fantastic.

I am going to the gym later with the wife too, gonna get a bit of strength training in.

I think I am ready for four miles on Sunday!

I just wanted to share.

Update: Went to the gym and rode recumbent bike for 10 mins (2.5 miles level 12) walked up 15 incline at 2.5 mph for 10 mins, and swam laps for 15 mins along with some strength training.

weigh in : 241lbs
