Miles to Health

I did it

After doing Barry Fat Blaster Lower Body this morning, I got on the treadmill to tackle getting to 2 miles and I got there today and felt great :), no pain in the hip and minimal pain in both knee, boy it felt good. First 2 mins of the warm up was at 4mph and the rest at 5mph or above, after the 5 mins warm I never dropped below 6mph, so the next 15mins was 6mph or above with 3-45 secs at 7mph and 1-60secs @ 7mph. Keeping myself above 6mph was more mental than physical. Getting stuck in a 4 hours meeting at work wasn't a good idea, since my left leg got stiff but I eventually just got up and got in a stretch in the restroom and that helped a lot, now to see if I can maintain it for the next scheduled 4 runs left for the rest of the month.

Frank-Thank you

Picked up a new gateway laptop, since Walmart had one on sale for less than $500 and it was perfect for what I needed.

Great Job on the two miles! Glad to hear a good stretch wasall that was needed. Keep up the positive attitude and keep moving!

Glad you are back to running! 4 hour meetings should not be permitted. It's not good for us runners to be sitting on our butts that long...
