Haven’t run in about a week after deciding to let my plantar faciitis cool off for a bit. Definately feeling better, although I’m pretty sure the weight I lost has slowly crept back. Why can’t healthy food taste as good as fried food?! why?! why?!!!!!!
So..yeah. I believe I will start running again tomorrow. Also…I found [...]
Well I think I’m out of my funk, yay! Got the whole house cleaned today, then went to McKinley field for a speed workout. Did 4×400’s and 4×200’s with a 400 and 200 jog in between, respectively.
Times for 400’s were: 90, 87, 86, 81
Times for 200’s were: 35, 35, 34, 34.
Glad to know my body [...]
Had a good run this morning; it was short but fast. Can’t seem to shake this feeling though. I’m definately starting to go stir-crazy in my house all day long. I’ve applied for close to 40 jobs, with no real result. Kind of depressing.
Haven’t felt like running the past two day. I know I need to, but can’t seem to get motivated. I also *really* need a freaking job.
Alyssa and I drove out to the Wexford target range on Sunday. I took my 9mm Steyr pistol and my Remington 770 30-07 rifle out. It was a good time, *but*….
When I first bought the 770 last year, I took it apart for the initial cleaning. Right away, the bolt assembly broke. Now, Remington was [...]
I just watched this video, which is a discussion and demonstration on Dean Kamen’s new bionic arm for amputees. W-O-W.
For those of you unfamiliar with the man, Dean Kamen is an uber-smart inventor. You may know him for his wheelchair that can go up and down stairs, or his Segway scooter, or many of his [...]
So, I applied for a job about 3 weeks ago via a staffing firm (which shall remain anonymous). Now, I normally try and avoid staffing firms but I really wanted this job, so I sent my resume in. The next day I get a callback asking me to come in for a meet-and-greet. OK… I [...]
Decided to take today off from running. My plantar faciitis is healing nicely (I think) and hurts much less in the morning when I first get up. Today, I think I’m just going to relax and stretch a lot, then do some sprint work tomorrow on the McKinley Field track.
Oh yeah, we lost our softball [...]
I love running in the rain. Unfortunately it’s been rather dry here in Pittsburgh the past few weeks. Lucked out this morning and caught the beginning of a light drizzle about halfway through my run. Wahoo!
Also, my new order of Hammer Nutrition products arrived yesterday; wahoo! I am trying two new products; Hammer Whey Protein, [...]
Had a good and semi-healthy weekend. At way to much cheese with Alyssa…but hey it’s protein, right? Just got back from a 7-miler. Went down Pioneer, onto 51, and back up McNeilly. Had to take a quick detour up Bausman to the porto-potty…bah. I even went before I left and STILL had to go again [...]
